Sipdown! (8 | 8)

So this is a nice enough blend, but I feel like it doesn’t live up to my expectations. First off, I don’t really taste the oolong. Maybe it affects the texture a bit, but not much. And then the green tea is just a Chinese sencha that tastes like dry grass, and there’s not enough genmai. The banana flavor is nice enough, but there’s not really enough of it either.

I like the idea, but I don’t think the oolong is adding anything, and it doesn’t necessarily make sense for the concept anyway. More genmai and more banana would be nice.

Another tea about which I’ll have to reserve judgment. Didn’t love it or hate it, but don’t totally remember it either. Definitely wanted to love it, though!

I was really hoping to love this, and unfortunately I’m not. The banana flavor is nice, but the combination of the oolong and green in the base is not working. I wish there was a bit less green tea and a bit more oolong/genmai.
