mellow, sweet, and umami. brews to a very nice deep green color. good for beginners since it can be brewed a bit hotter and longer imo

It's a decent tea, but it's not a personal favorite, since it doesn't seem to have much distinctive character. I found myself steeping it a bit longer than usual to get the flavor I wanted.

Even though this tea is not fukamushi (deep-steamed) it has a very beautiful green colour. I found it to be pleasantly sweet and grassy, with delicate notes of slight bitterness. The smell the package emanated at first was amazing. Great deal with the price. Definitely recommended.
