YunomiMy general impression without their notes is of a lighter green tea with some grassiness that is more prominent in the scent and back of the sip, and it fades as the tea cools. It’s not bitter. I don’t have a great word to describe the dominant flavor I’m getting, so I’m heading to the website to see what they say.
Their website describes this tea as high in minerality and sweetness, and after looking more at minerality (which I guess I had always assumed was just “salty” but is apparently more complicated than that) I think that’s exactly it. I suppose I can see some natural sweetness that I would have categorized more as an absence of bitterness. They rated it med-low on vegetal and umami scales as well, which makes sense.
Very drinkable in both steeps. Probably my favorite of theirs so far.

To me, minerality isn’t necessary salty (but salt can be mineral as well), more like how drinking from a mountain stream tastes, or at the more extreme end, like licking a rock LOL.
As I was reading about it I was like “Oh! Like I’m drinking this with a mouthful of rocks! That’s exactly it!” which is absolutely bizarre if you think too hard about it haha
Well it is called “mountain” ha ha ha…
