Thanks scribbles for putting this one in the box. I know it’s a pricey tea.

I tried it out today. Didn’t get any pictures but brewed it in my glass teapot to see the pretty leaves.

First infusion was so good. Fruity and apricot tasting . There was a bit of the nutty flavour I always get in most greens too. This one was lightly sweet and smooth.
Sooo good.

I didn’t get around to a 2nd infusion until later and was hoping for more of that apricot/fruity taste but it was only a basic green for the 2nd infusion. I was disappointed. The first infusion was so fantastic. Maybe I let the leaves sit too long between infusions.

Anyway, it’s totally worth it just to get that first infusion. I rarely brew green teas more than once.

Flavors: Apricot, Fruity, Nutty

Bio

Green teas are my favourite teas but I also enjoy: white, some herbal,rooibos, raw pu’erh, light oolongs, a little bit of black , and a little bit of ripe pu’erh. I have moved away from artificial flavourings and there’s hardly anything left in my cabinet with artificial flavouring or colours. It is mostly straight teas or tea blends.
