Mellow, but flavorful
Subtly earthy. There's also a definite pleasant "green" or vegetal taste but it's not astringent or sharp. Very pleasant and drinkable.
Green Mist, Qing Wu, is our proprietary blend of 3 pan fired, spring-pick green teas. Selected for their respective flavors and curled leaf shapes, our Mist offers a naturally vegetal and herbaceous cup. You will note a bit of tension between the natural sweetness and a hint of astringency. This is offered to create a lively, refreshing taste with a pleasing pucker to the finish.
