Trying this out for the first time, I’m getting none of the notes suggested in the description (melon, orchid) except for the ‘buttery smooth’ part. It is extremely buttery and smooth — reminds me actually of steaming buttered spinach — and to my surprise, I really like it. It’s so nice to find a non-astringent green tea, and the vegetable notes are relaxing. The leaves look beautiful brewed up, but due to their size were very hard to measure, so basically I used whatever amount I could balance on top of the teaspoon.
