August Sipdown Prompt – a grassy tea
I had this with lunch yesterday and forgot to add a note. I made it super strong and poured it over a big glass of ice because it is 100F outside.
Strongly grassy with a bit of bite at first that toned down a little as the ice melted. The leaves are amazing – soft green needles that turn the water yellow green and so many tiny floating particulates that it could pass for primordial soup. So fresh tasting and full of life.
I didn’t read my old notes, yet ended up having a square of Lindt salted dark chocolate with this just as before. It just seems to go with Japanese tea to me because I end up pairing it with matcha sometimes, too.
