Gyokuro Yamashita sampler from Maiko
Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
Ikuyo-no-mukashi Matcha from Ippodo. Somehow with my ippodo order I went from worried I would be out of Japanese greens for a month before Shincha, to worrying how I'm going to finish all of this before Shincha.

Currently sipping on Miyabi from O-Cha. just finished a bag of the yutaka midori, and the miyabi is not stacking up... I usually enjoy any tea that I'm drinking, but after a really good batch there's a feeling of missing something when moving on to the next... 

Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
Kamairicha tea day repeat of same sessions last night, but this time at work. Tsuyobi Shiage followed by Okumidori, 3 infusions each. Nice contrast. Good to finish with the okumidori, that one is really nice, loved the wild flower/boazhongeeness

Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
This was a remix batch from s new source caused by the problems in Japan. Kevin mentioned on his forum that he hopes the original Miyabi will be back by Shincha ...chingwa wrote:Currently sipping on Miyabi from O-Cha. just finished a bag of the yutaka midori, and the miyabi is not stacking up...

Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
I've been drinking 2011 Kiwami shincha and Kotobuki maccha for the last two weeks, and last night tasted a Yamashita Nomigoro from the 2010 sampler. Someone's gotta drink up those old greens

Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
The last of my Aoi Sencha from O-cha. Just in time as Shincha is almost right around the corner.
Re: Official what GREEN are you currently drinking?
DoMatcha. The organic ceremonial grade. Really smooth and creamy, plus deeply tranquil L-Theanine effects. Whisked into Trader Joe's unsweetened coconut milk.
