Great Japanese Greens

February 23, 2012

Today, I tasted two fabulous green teas from Japan. One was the Sencha Master’s Pick. the leaves were long and dark green. The liquor was great body. The other was the Gyokuro Heavenly. What a fabulous tea, after drinking it, I had shivers down my back. Great body and lovely sweetness, I enjoyed this tea. Yes these two teas are expensive, but they are great.
