It took me two tries to really get into this brew. I always get too excited and overleaf, especially if it’s my first time with a tea. I was slinging senchas so often that I forgot how much kamairicha can expand! Second time around was much better. all the bitter green I got the first time around had mellowed out to a lovely wakame freshness. This tea is full of marine umami – I sensed butter drenched scallops and salty oysters. It’s a very refreshing green tea, definitely on the more savory side.
Flavors: Mineral, Seashell, Seaweed, Shellfish
Lol I often have that problem with rolled teas too, I use too much because I forget how much it expands!
Right? It’s almost comical when the leaves are busting out of my brewing vessel before I realize it haha
