This is one of those green teas that benefit from proper brewing. I mean, all teas do but some you can’t appreciate without the properness. Or maybe I’m just not a fan of Maojian. I get corn notes and bitter grass notes with strips of astringency. Slight fresh squash notes and a bit of umami. But overall, this is not what I look for when I want to drink green tea. So perhaps I shouldn’t put in a score because it’s a good green, just not my taste?
I haven’t really been drinking straight green teas over the last couple years. I gravitate towards black teas and lightly oxidized oolongs. But, I like to have a couple straight greens on hand in case I have a craving, so I was pleased to see this in my Tea Runner’s box.
This smells sweet and grassy.
The flavor reminds me of jiaogulan- very sweet and green. The sweet flavor is actually turning my stomach a bit.
