Golden Moon Tea Sampler #1
I picked out a packet at random and got this one. I wonder if I used too much water? I tried to use about 4 or 5 ounces of water, but my eyeballs are not well-trained precision tools. Glancing at the other tasting notes, I see that I’m off from the general consensus. Aroma, to me, is sweet corn in green tea and I can’t get the “corny” flavor out of my mind as I sip.
It tastes like a pleasant, weakish, generic green and I’m missing out on all the sensation. I will carefully measure water for my next steep and then possibly revise my note.

You were probably way more accurate than I was! I love this tea, but I couldn’t tell you what the measurements were – I used about half of the packet for my 20ish ounce cup. I do wish that I would’ve used the whole packet though because I’m worried that my second half will be weak. And I do hate it when a negative scent association comes to mind because it’s almost impossible for me to readjust. Good luck on future steeps!
I definitely used more water than you so I think it’s fine. I made my cup with 10oz of water.
I used about 10-11oz water to my packet and thought I used way too much water. Just ordered another sample of this to try with 6 oz water next time. So, no, you are not alone. It’s a shame since the packet smells so freakin’ good.
My tasting was very good. But I just dumped the whole packet into 12oz of water. I think the GM samples are all single serving packets?
one to two cups per sampler. There were a lot of pellets for gunpowder.
