From Sencha Tea Bar

The Rukeri garden area conditions are excellent for growing tea: hot and humid days, cool evenings, rainy seasons, rich soil, and elevations reaching nearly 6,000 feet. Hints of apricot in the dry, aromatic leaves evolve into steamed greens with faint wisps of tobacco. It ultimately steeps into a mildly astringent, mellow cup of chiffon-colored tea.

The package says 175 F but I could tell by how tippy this tea is that it needed a lower temp. Thus I steeped it at 160F for 2 min. Even then there was a bit of astringency so i think 1.5 min is the way to go.

In spite of how sensitive this tea is it doesn’t have any rich vegetal flavour. To me it tastes like any standard green tea bag (I’m not sure how to describe it other than that). The fussiness of this tea is not worth it too me so I will use it up but not repurchase.
