Smooth intensity
In fragrance this tea shows florar and sweet pastry notes in a balanced way. In a hot gaiwan the most dominant notes were lilac and chimney cake. After the rinse, an umami rich vegetal broth came to my mind. The first infusions gave very elegant smooth brews with vegetable and milk notes in it’s taste. In later infusions I noticed a sort of mineraltity and significant sweetness. In the last infusion, It is worth overbrewing to get a strong astringent refreshing kick which definietly wakes you up.

A staple go to green tea
I never consider teas to be a “ Beginner” tea. IMO it does an injustice to the power and presence of teas that are fine quality but not as pricey. Having stated that, if you are looking to introduce yourself to the universe of Green Tea and brewing in the gong fu cha style, this one is a good place to start. A nice flavor with a bright finish on the palate. Steeps well but keep that water temp down on this one. 185-190degrees for a few seconds and you will not be disappointed.

Jungle Soup
Jungle soup, humid forest grass, drop of lemon juice; jungle hermitage, warm rain. Full-bodied, beautifully simple.
