62 Tasting Notes
I am a big fan of all green teas, including Japanese green teas, which I am always told taste like grass and are not very good. While there certainly is a very distinct spinachy, grassy taste to most japanese greens, I think the flavor is so much more complex than others give credit. This tea is very good and tasty.
Dragonwell (Lung-Ching) is my favorite green tea, and this one by upton is pretty good, however I don’t think this one is the best offering around as it fails to completely capture the nutty accents that make dragonwell so good. It is best when steeped at 175 degrees for about 2 minutes.
