#japanese green tea

Mellow Monk Tea was kind enough to reach out to me for a tea review of my choice so I asked for Frosty Garden because it sounded so interesting! 

Frosty Garden is a green tea with some white stems. Brew this tea using 1 teaspoon in a small teapot and 167F/76C water for 1 - 2 minutes for the first infusion and only 1 minute for the second. 

This tea turned out to be very pleasant, with strong vegetal notes that I was able to subdue if I used shorter steeping times. Frosty Garden had light citrus tones that added a level of sweetness and complexity to this tea that was extremely palpable. I was left feeling like I had wondered into a Japanese tea garden on a spring day with the clouds promising a light drizzle.  Overall Frosty Garden has become a go to for the days I’m in the mood for green tea.

If you would like to pick up some of this tea you can find it here.
