I keep meaning to try more green tea, but shy away from spending lots of money on what feels to my black tea sensibilities like a weak, unsatisfying brew. So my green tea expedition started at the supermarket.
This is serviceable. It has a light taste, not very flavorful, and finishes with an astringency that irritates me more often than not. I can see drinking it if I’m more in the mood for water than tea but still need a little caffeine boost.
In the meantime, the search continues for a “gateway” green.
