6 Tasting Notes View all

“Sipdown! I finished off the last of this this morning, and while I did enjoy this tea quite a lot, I’ve realized that gyokuros (which I’m assuming this is) are a bit too finicky for my taste. Ah...” Read full tasting note
“This was a sample from a swap with Christina. The leaves were so small and a dark dark green. I brewed at 185F/85C for 1 min. First taste it was nutty, sweet and smooth, not as much...” Read full tasting note

Description

Deeply steamed fine leaf with a glossy sheen and some dust (common for deep steamed sencha). These richly aromatic leaves produce a greenish/yellow slightly murky liquor that is characteristic of the deep steaming. These leaves produce an amazingly sweet, rich, smooth and full bodied tea liquor with slight nutty/roasted flavour notes. (Comes in a 50g Vacuum Sealed Package)
