The second time around went better. Somehow the first time I just didn’t get all that much out of this tea which surprised me because the green tea was one of my best ever experiences with green. Tis time carefully brewed in a prewarmed pot. The initial aroma was quite kelpy to me but the leaves unfold in the three full minutes I gave them to release their flavor and aroma helped. I still smell kelp but something that reminds me of the mountains of Nepal and a nearby tea house, a hint of soil or smoke, I’m not sure. . The taste is bread and a touch of honey and that same nearly smoky taste. The second steep brings more floral and honey notes and the slightest mineral taste.
