this tea is something else. I have not tasted anything like this.

Preparing this tea at a low concentration is a waste of its potential. For me, a dosage of 5 g/100 ml, 60 °C, 1 min. for the first infusion has worked well. The infusion was intensely creamy-umami, a bit brothy, slightly grassy, with a pronounced secondary sweetness. I also prepared it as a gyokuro, 1 g per 10 ml, 40 °C, 3 min. and it was delicious. The great advantage of this tea is the very low bitterness, which allows you to enhance other flavours by increasing the concentration of the tea. (I used water with a TDS of 322 mg/kg, providing a fuller infusion.) Excellent price/performance ratio.

This was my second Shuppin tea and I like this the best. Brewed 7 grams of tea with 60 Celcius water in a 50 ml vessel for 1 min and allowed it to cool completely. The initial flavor of the tea was deep, robust, with an initial hit of well-rounded sweetness and very soothing - opened the senses. On the second brew it retained about 45% of its sweetness with a mild hint of bitterness at the tip of the tongue. Second brew was warm. The tea coats the mouth with a lovely finish. The tea soup had a lovely clarity and sparkle even on the second brew. It yielded a deep yellow with a hint of chartreuse. The wet leaves were reminiscent of the scent of after a spring rain on lush greenery while the dry leaves had a deep green flavor and were singularly long and compact. There were no tea clouds that formed in the bottom of the tea cup - tea dust was extremely minimal. Caffeine had a slow rise and even rise. This was worth the price for 100 grams. Per usual Sazen's service and speed of shipping is always stellar. Thank you.

Really good tea! The dry leaves are absolutely beautiful! It has a very unique taste. Sweet and astringent at the same time, with somewhat of a kick, as if it had a hint of ginger in it. Has a flowery, fruity aftertaste that reminds me of pineapple.
