Mellow and easy to drink. I love this tea because the flavor profile isn’t too strong. You get light vegetal notes at the end with no bitter after taste. (Steeped 175F 2mins). I like to wake and bake and drink this tea. It has me feeling energized, motivated, yet relaxed all at once. Will be a repurchasing.

My other new favorite umami green tea. Tastes remarkably similar to the Kukicha Kabuse green tea, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the 2. It's a good evening tea. No gross grass flavor.
One of the decent green teas out there.
However, be aware it is a pain to clean afterwards since the small pieces can get stuck on the infuser.

Better than I expected, from the first sip I knew I'm gonna be hooked on this tea , I'm not so sure about aroma but love the taste which is very sweet, smooth, velvety not so nutty, little leafy and unique aftertaste of light honey, perfectly ripe avocado or unripe walnuts

This tea does not have too much initial fragrance or fresh appearance but once it is brewing the unique leaves turn bright green and the water becomes extremely vibrant. Slight to no bitterness when brewed right this tea is a must try for green tea lovers.

I have been enjoying green tea for the past 10 years, drinking it on a daily basis. This is a spectacular cup of tea...definitely in my top 3 favorites of all time. It is fresh, clean, sweet and brews wonderfully. I could drink this all day!
Wow! This is one of the best finds in green tea. It is crisp, clean, and bright flavoured. Truly a unique tea treasure!

I don't consider myself as an expert but I know what I like.
This is not my cup of tea (hah).
It's really "light" and pretty much tasteless.
it's not bitter though (it's kind of sweet).
I tried to experiment with brewing times etc but that didn't change much (2nd steep is a bit better).
I'm going to try Yame Gyokuro Grade 1 next...
