The tea arrived today and I was crestfallen when I opened it and saw the burnt, dry leaves. Nevertheless, (after drinking a bowl of matcha for courage) I brewed up a mug following Alex's parameters. <BR/><BR/>As determined as I was to hate the tea, it was really pretty nice. I am even thinking of getting a little more to drink while the rest ages! I never would have ordered were it not for your review.Salserohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538918784870619787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7247865670730394030.post-86585871778265126002007-12-22T21:44:00.000-08:002007-12-22T21:44:00.000-08:00Sounds like you got a good TGY.

I highly recommend it. I agree with everything Alex described so much better than I could. (Normally I just say "Mmmmm!")

Maybe I'll try out this bad boy...<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the review,<BR/>BrentBrenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07624029379597567958noreply@blogger.com
