Leaf Characteristic:
1st Steeping:
Water Temp: 170 Fahrenheit
Time: 1-2 minutes
I have not had this tea brand for quite some time. It is nice to frequent some old favorites.
Using one tea bag, I put this in my cup and add freshly boiled water and leave it to steep for a couple of minutes. Because this tea brews strongly on its own, no more than two minutes is needed for steeps. The aroma is strongly of green tea, a bit medicinal in the scent/aroma. Tea color is lightly brown and as I sip the tea it is mildly astringent with a slight tingling when swallow.
I like this tea because it comes across to me as green tea should taste, at times medicinal to heal whatever is ailing you.
Overall tasting notes: the tannin in this green tea is subtle making for a good cup of green tea.
Cup’s characteristic: fresh and mildly astringent
Liquor color: lightly brown
Taste: astringent and medicinal
