From Martin :)

The base definitely tastes like a Chinese sencha, tangy almost like lemon, grass seed, dry grass. The balance tends more toward the green tea than toasted rice, which can be seen in the steeped leaf in the sachet. It’s stuffed full of green tea. Simple, pleasant drinker that I’ve been having the past several evenings. Sleep arrives unhindered by caffeine. Easy tea <3

Flavors: Dry Grass, Grass Seed, Tangy, Toasted Rice

Yup, certainly a cheap tea, but not a bad one. It’s not even freshest tea… so maybe changed a bit too. I am glad that you liked it :)

National Popcorn Day! YAY! I followed the day prompt as well!
SIPDOWN 16 (not yet; I have one tea bag remaining. But I plan to finish it later today. It’s worth only single steeps.)

I wrote everything about this tea already. Grass seed flavour, cheap tea, nice genmai in. The base is a bit drying. If it just got a better, fresh grass taste instead of the grass seed.

Certainly it’s not the best available Genmaicha. Actually I feel it’s far from it. But as I wrote earlier. It’s cheap. It’s pyramid sachet. 85/100 is overrated for sure. Even considering it being a tea bag. But recommend for price/enjoyment ratio.

I saw it being available again. And I wrote I will buy it again. But I need to be much less buried in tea first! So, I decided against buying it.

Flavors: Grass Seed, Toasted Rice
