This is still a great tea, maybe even better now than when I first had it. Since it is very close to being fully oxidized, I don’t think it will develop very quickly from now on. I will keep an eye on it in any case.

Today, I found it to be more woody, mineral/savoury and medicinal than earlier. There is an aged note in the dry leaf aroma and a strong nectar presence in the wet leaf aroma. The aftertaste is also somewhat biting and expansive. It blends the sweet and mineral notes very well.

Some of the new flavours from today include root vegetalbes, peach, sushi, caramel, mead, resin, ash among others.

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
