I’ve been meaning to try this since I got it a week and a half ago!
The leaves look really nice and have a light, floral scent.
Brewed, it smells quite buttery, actually!
I only steeped it for 3 mins, ‘cuz the water here is kind of hot. I haven’t measured it, but I do think it’s above 180, which is what Adagio recommends. But also, 5 mins seems long to me for a tea this green.
In any case, it’s got a really light, slightly sweet flavor. It’s very very smooth, and there are definitely buttery notes that I quite enjoy! I’m a fan! :) When this sample’s done, I may just have to get more!
Thanks for the recommendation, Cofftea! :)

It’s actually a closer to a green oolong. That being said I like a several oolongs at 3min anyway inspite of it not being a green. As much as I loved it at 3 min, I am curious as to how it’ll taste at 5 min.
Yeah, I’d be interested to try it at 5 mins too! I’ll have to make sure I have the right water temp when I do though.
Buttery? Yum!
