Yay, a green tea I have liked!
I got this as a free sample from Zen Tea Life (thank you!) and just brewed it up today – I haven’t really been in a green tea mood for a long time.
I used a little bit more leaf and a little cooler temperature than called for and steeped on the short side because I’m cautious with green teas now.
And… I like it! It is nutty, with a little bit of walnut like astringency but just the right amount. I get hints of almonds, green beans, and a little bit of butteriness at the end.
I’m rather relieved – I think I’ve broken through my green tea aversion now.

Weird.. I DID get the coconut oolong like you did, but I didn’t get the dragonwell. I got a pu-erh instead. Bummer. I’ve been on the hunt for a good dragonwell.
Aw man, I wish I had found that out Monday, I would have thrown a sample of that in the package too!

Awww it’s okay. I’ve got some other dragon wells to try in the meantime.
