I occasionally drink the decaffeinated version of this tea because it still tastes a bit like green tea. It turns out that that's exactly how the caffeinated version tastes—a bit like green tea. There's some vegetal freshness and a little grassy bitterness on the back of the tongue, but that's pretty much it. If you like the taste of green tea, Bigelow isn't really for you.
UPDATE: On a hunch, I thought I'd try brewing it with hotter water to see if Bigelow blended their green tea to be brewed like black tea. Nope. Still no flavor.
