any recommendations for a cherry blossom sencha/teas

I am glad I got some of the Den's Sakura. I am not really a green drinker, but I do enjoy this tea both hot and cold. I made over a liter of it yesterday and I am still drinking it.

Yeah, it is still on my menu...and so easy to brew, I approach it very casually, as casually as a structured, perfectionist, near OCD person is able.

Heh. It's sad how well I understand (and resemble) this remark.

The Sakura Sencha from Den's is surprisingly good as iced tea. After hearing a few other people mention that they had as an iced tea, I tried it by just making a couple steeps of it hot and throwing it in a water bottle in the fridge. It's really tasty!

If you enjoy light and floral green teas, cherry blossom sencha is a great choice. It has the fresh, slightly grassy taste of sencha with a gentle cherry blossom aroma that feels smooth and refreshing. For best results, brew it at a lower temperature around 70–80 °C for about 1–2 minutes to avoid bitterness.

You can also try the Sakura Green Tea from The Tea Group. It has a nice balance of sencha and cherry blossom flavor and is a good option if you want something simple and pleasant to drink.

If you liked Republic of Tea’s cherry blossom, you might enjoy sakura green tea, cherry rose blends, or a light jasmine tea. A lot of shops have seasonal spring cherry blossom teas right now too!

Thanks for the advice, I will try it.

I think the cherry blossom is here - and the only teas I have tried are the republic of tea - cherry blossom - and it was really good (about 4 yrs ago) .

Any recommendations this year?

If you liked it before, you might like a loose-leaf Jasmine Silver Needle this year. It's usually smooth, lightly floral, and a step up without being too expensive. Just make sure it smells natural and not too strong.
