Scarlett G. ★★★★★

The umami is genuinely dewy and smooth, not bitter at all for a green tea. Brewed this every afternoon for a week and the vivid, juicy flavor holds up nicely on the second steep.

Samuel ★★★★★

That first sip hit me with a real dewy umami kick, and the mouthfeel is so smooth it almost feels creamy. I've been brewing it a bit cooler than usual and the juicy green notes really come through clean without any bitterness.

Henry ★★★★★

The second steep was even smoother than the first, and that umami really coats your mouth without any bitterness. I brewed it at 160°F and it stayed clean and juicy for three rounds, which is pretty rare for a green tea. This is my new go-to for hot summer afternoons.
