3 Tasting Notes View all

“It’s smoky and delicate. I know, strange to be both, but this somehow is. It’s got a toasted nut taste to it, as well as just a touch of grassiness. Very nice!” Read full tasting note
“It’s pretty earthy for a green. Every once in a while I even get a sip that screams Pu-erh esque right in my face. And I like pu-erh so it’s fine but yea… really earthy. Nice and mellow...” Read full tasting note
“Tasty, but smokier than I expected. Pretty earthy tasting for a green tea.” Read full tasting note
