4 Tasting Notes
This Japanese Black Tea is relatively new to the Black Tea family. Compared to the rich and malty black teas from India, the Japanese black tea is milder in flavor and smoother in taste. It’s definitely a good introduction tea to many beginning drinkers who like to experience black teas. You can steep it for a longer time (5-6 mins) to taste the lasting flavor.
Preparation
This is a lively tea. The dry tea leaves are bigger than usual white tea I’ve seen. They are consistent in length though and I can tell the freshness from the white fur on the leaves. The tea liquid is bright greenish and tastes mellow with a light natural sweetness.
