2 slightly heaping tsp. in 500 ml. water.

It almost seems to be a combination of the sencha and genmaicha that I’ve tried from this same sampler. It’s grassy but not as much as the sencha, and it’s slightly roasted like the genmaicha. I think that this is the only one of the three that stands alone – the other two are better when paired with a meal.

I’m loving them all so far though; it’s going to be hard to pick which ones to restock!

Bio

My tea habits:

*I am an unashamed Lipton iced-tea drinker (mass quantities, year round).
*I like hot teas but only in cold weather (and occasionally late summer nights or mornings).
*I love Japanese greens (the more seaweed-y the better) and good strong malty black teas.
*I do NOT love smoke in any form.
*Vanilla, cinnamon, or lemon anything will usually pique my interest.
*I’m working on pu-erh but it’s definitely going to take some time to grow on me.
