Iccha KaribanJapan, Green Tea

Beatiful flat deep-green leaf with some light-green twigs. Cloudy vivid green infusion, lovely! Vegetal, faintly sweet, satisfying.

Tea: Upton Tea, TJ15 (discontinued)
Gaiwan: Red Blossom Tea, Jingdezhen Summer

Upton Tea description: "Iccha Kariban is an exciting new experimental production, crafted from select cultivars. The name of this tea is loosely translated as "Flower Fragrance", and is suggested by the tea's lovely floral aroma, which many have likened to lilac. The brothy, flavorful cup has a sweet character and clean finish."
