This is the only Pouchong I've ever found in teabags. Compared to loose Pouchong, it doesn't stack up. The aroma is flat and there is an unpleasant biting quality to the tea. Compared to other equally-inexpensive green teas, however, this is not bad.
The aroma is vegetal and a bit fishy. There's a bit of sharpness, but also some honey-like sweetness. A peculiar tea; I find many people don't like this one, but I enjoy it somewhat for a change of pace, if I have to use a teabag.
