Reviewed by: Christine T.Shieh Please describe how you are preparing the tea (brew times, water temperature, type of teapot, etc): I used hot water for 5 seconds on the first brew, 4 seconds on next brew and 8 seconds on the third. I added more time for the additional brews. I was able to brew this tea 9 times and there was still a good taste after that. What did you taste on the First Brew?:This tea had a subtle taste that is surprising, light but full. I liked the wonderful green quality that is not bitter. I definitely tasted tropical flowers. What did you taste on the Second Brew?: : A flower taste like lilac emerged that balances with the green taste. It is stronger on this brew. What did you taste on the Third Brew?: : I thought the taste might start to disappear but it changed and got better. There were some new tastes as well and everything seemed to get softer and blend together better. Additional Comments: it's so subtle and smooth. It's a wonderful tea.

Reviewed by: red Please describe how you are preparing the tea (brew times, water temperature, type of teapot, etc): I let the water sit for a few minutes after boiling, using a Chinese cup with a lid What did you taste on the First Brew?: very nice flavour, a little grass with nuts. Steeped for about 15 seconds What did you taste on the Second Brew?: Steeped about 10 seconds. Same taste as first brew but more full tasting What did you taste on the Third Brew?: same as second brew but smoother with some other flavours I can’t describe but very good. Steeping 12 seconds. Additional Comments: I like this tea a lot. I’m just starting to drink green tea and this is way better than what I get at the supermarket. I feel energized and refreshed after drinking this tea and it leaves a nice taste in my mouth after. I’ll definitely order this tea again.
