drank Bancha Suruga by Den's Tea
46 tasting notes

Oh man, I love this tea. Got it as a sample with my last order, but I think I’ll have to buy some more next time I’m near Den’s. The leaves smell something like green beans, especially when they’re wet, and the tea itself tastes of mild vegetables, but bitter and buttery at the same time. I could easily drink this tea every day.

Near Den’s? They have a B&M?

Yeah, in Torrance, CA. The address is on their website. It’s not really a proper shop, just kind of a storage center for their tea, but if I go pick it up myself, they give me a 10% discount.

Sweetness!

You lucky dog! I have to settle for ordering a bunch when there’s a 15% off sale like this October — I feel so guilty for the $75 order I just got today that I hid it in the basement so Sue (my wife) won’t realize I ordered more Dens. :)

A friend once asked me, if I could have anything in the world, what would I want? I immediately answered, “Superpowers, specifically superspeed like the Flash.” He said that didn’t count because it wasn’t real, so my second choice was a cupboard full of every flavor of tea in existence. He promptly told me that that was a waste of a wish and said he would ask for the world’s biggest yacht.

But the more I think about it, the more I’m sure that I made the better choice. Slowly saving up money for higher quality teas is helping to convince me. Off I go to taste as many teas as I possibly can (and maybe dream about superpowers along the way).
