The pale golden green infusion has a rich and savory aroma with nutty, buttery, and green notes. The taste is rich, savory, green, and nutty with a light and refreshing green finish.
For the purposes of this review, I followed the recommended brewing directions, using 160° F water and steeping for 1 minute. The results were rich and savory throughout three infusions while the color of the liquor became brighter. I thoroughly enjoyed each infusion, with the third really standing out for how refreshing it felt.
This tea was purchased by me.
