Steep #2: My 6-year-old got to this before I did, and he asked, “What kind of tea is this, Mommy?” and then had a slurp. “Yummm!!” He said, wide-eyed, and downed about half the cup.

Yep, so we agree. This really is delicious – and wowed a green-food-hating boy. I’m impressed.

1.5 tsp in 12 oz. re-steeped.

I loved Laoshan Black and have been looking forward to trying the Laoshan Green. So far I’m noticing that it smells way different — this one smells almost like seaweed. It looks like the same twisty little leaves, though! I’m brewing this with a low temperature after reading other people’s comments. Let’s get to it!

The brew definitely has a green, seaweedy smell — totally different than it’s black tea cousin. The tea itself is very light in color and has a grassy taste. It’s possible I did not steep this long enough, but I didn’t want to risk a bitter cup. I can almost taste the vitamin C in this — it’s like eating a mouthful of greens (which may sound bad to some people, I don’t mean it that way).

Resteeping was successful, the smell was stronger but the taste was lighter. Interesting. I liked this tea, but not nearly as much as the Laoshan Black! In fact, maybe I should order some more Black today…

Let me start off by saying that I have been trying a lot of different Verdant teas and I am very impressed with the low cost and high quality teas! This tea is great! I am brewing this tea the western way with 2teaspoons of tea and steeping for 2min 30sec. On early brews this tea is smooth and can be described as having a chocolate taste, and when held in the mouth a bit of a vegetable taste comes on. The taste once swallowed lingers with a sweetness that can be compared to a green bean. Later steepings bring on a more vegetable and creamy taste. I also would like to note that Verdant has great customer appreciation and every time I order from them I receive a handwritten note and other interesting facts about teas. Overall I really enjoyed this tea and I love that Verdant cares about the drinkers of their teas!
