I think this one suffered from a bit of flavor contamination, from being in a box with mostly flavored teabags. They’re all individually wrapped, but the wrappers are just paper so they don’t completely seal in the flavor.

Anyway, this was quite bland but did have a mellow grassy flavor to it. But then there was also a hint of some fruity flavoring, I assume from an adjacent teabag. Oh well, it didn’t seem like this was great to begin with anyway. :P

First steep, second steep
I tasted a sunny knoll
Yay first try sencha

I’d never tried a sencha tea before. I tend to over-steep and/or scald green tea. (It is not my forte.) I paid close attention to time on this one, though, and was deliciously surprised at the mild grassiness. It wasn’t bitter or really astringent, even on the second steep. Yay!

Pretty good everyday sencha, this tea is definitely one of the ones that I consume the most.
