Another T&T iced/bottle tea find!
It’s interesting to me that the English translated name on this bottle specifies Japanese green tea whereas the black tea version did not give a country. I assumed that meant this would probably be a Sencha or similar, but I was pleasantly surprised with my first few sips because this was very nutty and a little toasty tasting. Not like a sencha/gyokuro or really most steamed Japanese green teas at all. Not really quite so heavy/intense to make me think of a hojicha, though? Maybe a little roasted kukicha??
I don’t know. The whole bottle left me very confused exactly what type of Japanese green tea this was made with, but I did enjoy it very much. More than the black tea from the same brand, in fact! It was just so smooth, fresh, and clean tasting with a perfect natural sweetness and nuttiness.
