        Altogether I was quite surprised by the quality of this tea. Great taste, sweet, delicate, low bitterness. Maybe it lacks the punch of Sae or Yutaka Midori, but nevertheless it was great experience. There are my impressions:

        1st steep 68, deg. C, 55 s.
        Bright green-yellow (not as green as Sae Midori), nice aroma. Taste of chestnuts, chamomille. Very sweet delicate and delicious. Quite a lot of umami. Low astringency, practicaly no bitterness. Aftertaste at the beginning not there, but after a minute it really developes nicely. One of the best 1st steeps I've had.

        2nd steep, 71 deg. C, 25 s.
        Still bright. Taste similar, but quite weaker. Sweet, delicate, no bitterness, nice aftertaste. Quite enjoyable.

        3rd steep, 75 deg. C, 45 s.
        Bright, yellowish green. A little weaker than 2nd steep, but not much. Some grassy notes. Still sweet and delicate with no bitterness.Very drinkable.

        4th steep, 80 deg. C, 120 s.
        Pretty washed (watery) steep, but nevertheless drinkable, because the sweetness is still there, without bitterness.

        I received this new Oku Midori sencha just as I was leaving for NY State. I used the municiple, country water where I stayed and I have to say it was excellent. I was very impressed. However upon returning to New Jersey I couldn’t duplicate the taste. I tried many bottled water brands, some tasted better than others but not like that country water. That said, along with all the other parameters for making good tea, water is critical.
