Sipdown
I thought I didn’t love Japanese green teas but I am changing my mind. This is unbelievably fresh and the color of leaves is stunningly vibrant. It is a green so bright it shouts of life and early spring and rich, new leaf flavor.
Even though I am using a very fine infuser basket (Stump teapot) there is a fine green powder on the bottom of the teapot that it almost makes the tea look milky/savory…like a miso soup instead of a clear green tea at the bottom. First cups are clearer but you can still see the delicate particulates.
Though this is a sipdown, Superanna brought me some lovely green teas from her recent trip to Japan, so I won’t panic about this one being all gone. Yet.
