The appearance of this green tea is dark green. The dry leaves smell amazing. It’s like seaweed.
After brewing I can see that it consists mainly out of small young leaves as well as some one bud one leaf pickings.
This is a pretty strong tea. The flavour reminds me of a biluochun. It’s vegetal, seaweed-like, and not bitter when steeped well. I applied hot water at 85C at first. It worked fine, but 80C I would say is optimal.
3 grams of leaves is good for 3 brewing in a glass. I can recommend it to those who like Japanese green tea as well as the Chinese Bi Luo Chun.
