Organic Green Tea from Uncle Lee's Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China62 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 13th, 2019
This is a very slightly above-average, but not outstanding, bagged green tea available at a price that's hard to top for a non-store brand (about $8 for a 100-count box online, or at stores such as Wal-Mart). Fortunately, I procured a fairly new, sealed 100-ct box at an estate sale for a buck, so *my* value was unrepr...

China Special Snow Dragon Green Tea from Simpson & Vail
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fuding, Fujian, China76 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 14th, 2018
A pleasant green tea with a smooth, mild flavor that tasted a lot better when brewed more strongly. Easy to drink and I'd imagine this would appeal to a broad audience, with perhaps an exception for people who think green tea is bland or weak, because this was on the milder side.
Thank you to Simpson & Vail for the ...
Organic Gunpowder Green Tea (Zhu Cha) from TeaVivre
Style: Gunpowder Green Tea – Region: Fuding, Fujian, China85 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5

The first time I ever tried gunpowder tea, I hated it. So, I came to this tea very skeptical. I also don't like smoky flavors, so that was another potential issue. But, even with all of that working against it, I ended up loving this tea. It has a spicy note like black pepper, there's a moderately rich, buttery quality...

Sleeping Dragon from Adagio Teas
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China40 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2018
Overall this was not a great tea at all. I used no sugar and steeped for just above 2 minutes at 170 degrees. Although I fiddled the temperature around with no success.
The tea smells nice and is almost fruity.
Everything comes crashing down in the flavor though. It tastes like I took old vegetable broth and poured i...
Emerald Green from The Tao of Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 19th, 2017
Also known as "San Bei Xiang" or "Three Cups" because of the different fragrances this tea provides with each infusion. I'm a little confused about the origin because the website says it is from Ningde in Fujian province but the tin I bought says it is from Zhejiang province. Perhaps Tao of Tea switched locations it ...

Special Reserve Green Tea from Shang Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China67 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 9th, 2015
I love Shang tea. It's probably the best tea shop that you can buy from in the Midwest. This particular tea though- is for a very particular kind of person. It has an incredibly potent and bitter taste to it if you steep it like a normal tea. You have to make sure and use boiling water, extra amounts of the tea, and on...

Gunpowder Green Tea (Zhu Cha) from TeaVivre
Style: Gunpowder Green Tea – Region: Fuding, Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 4th, 2015
This is a very vegetal tea, but at the same time, not overwhelmingly so. In a way, it is your stereotypical green tea, that tastes like vegetables and has a slight bitterness to it. If you like green tea, however, it is an excellent everyday tea due to it's very affordable price.
First, the aroma is very smooth. It...
Sencha from Simply Good Tea
Style: Sencha – Region: Fujian, China33 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Feb. 21st, 2015
I was very disappointed by this tea. It was the only tea so far to disappoint me, from Simply Good Tea; their other teas have been consistently good.
Dry leaf is relatively dark and vibrant green in color, and has a mild but pleasing aroma, toasty, slightly vegetal, and with a unique minty note.
Upon brewing, ge...
Sleeping Dragon Green from Simple Loose Leaf
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 6th, 2014
The aroma is a blend of chestnut, green bean, and spinach. It reminds me of a very vegetal oolong, or like an oolong tea and a green tea had a clandestine affair and this tea is the result. The aroma is a bit faint, but the notes are pleasant.
The first steep is fairly delicate with notes of toasted sesame and nutty...
White Monkey from Single Origin Teas
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 18th, 2013
The aroma of this delightfully fuzzy tea is initially citrus sweet but also has notes of papery. I know, papery is an odd thing to say about a tea's aroma but to me it smells like artisan Washi and very pleasant. There are also notes of cedar and fresh greenery. Once the tea is steeped it takes on the aroma of artichok...

Mei Hua from Adagio Teas

Very mild and floral with a slight hint of that typical 'green' taste of green teas. Very delicate and mild and perfect for someone longing for a spring day! I think this might be my new favorite green

Green Spiral from Utopian Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 12th, 2010
What an interesting green tea, it’s like none i’ve ever had. The liquor is thicker than usual, and the color is darker as well. It doesn’t taste vegetal,or grassy at all, but instead has an earthy aspect, that reminds me of some black teas maybe? I can’t place the taste, but it is really full and very flavorf...

Three Kingdoms Mao Feng Green Tea from Teavana
Style: Mao Feng Green Tea – Region: Fujian, China63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
May. 23rd, 2010
This is a very mild and sweet green tea, similar to Teavana's Pi Lo Chun but less aromatic and perhaps slightly grassier. Pleasing but bordering on bland and boring if brewed as instructed. I find that with a very long steep time (8+ min), however, it acquires nuances in the aroma that are absent otherwise...includin...
