pleasant and delightful green tea Review by Christian, Mexico
This a pleasant and delightful green tea. I might say that freshness is its main feature when opening the bag. However, its mood changes quite quickly after infusing, it becomes more serious and complex. There is a hint of mint on the wet leaves that still reminds us of that joyful character of the dry leaves. Infusion is of beautiful green trimmed with nice yellow tones, infusion is strong, with nuts and some astringency. I must say that is a playful tea, with a fresh character at the beginning and a final seriousness.
