I’ve been drinking a lot of puerhs and darker teas recently as well as soup and warming things, but energetically, I feel kind of blah (and the weather is totally blah) so I thought it might be nice to lighten up a bit and see how I feel…
This is a tea I got the last time I was at Aroma Tea Shop. It’s fun to get teas in the mail, but on the other hand, a bummer when you get a bunch of teas you don’t care for. It’s nice to be able to sample teas like you can at Aroma.
This is a lovely green tea I tried in the shop. It smells very vegetal and buttery. The tea liquor itself is vegetal, with sweeter notes of peas and corn. It’s slightly on the delicate side for Chinese green teas with only the tiniest hint of pungency if you steep it for more than 2 minutes.
I only got 1 oz. of this but I will need to be getting more at some point. Rarely do green teas really blow my mind (usually Japanese ones) but this is a beauty and gives a peaceful, happy feeling. This needs a permanent place in my cupboard. very nice for chasing the blahs away…
