Finally managed a sipdown of this sample from 2016! Truly it’s practically criminal to let a decent green tea sit around for so long, even in a sealed packet. Any rating I gave it now would be entirely unfair and not reflective of what this might have tasted like when it was fresh. It’s still ok now – roasty, nutty, excellent for fall. And it counts as a nutty tea for Mastress Alita’s sipdown challenge!
