Gyokuro Pinnacle (40g/1.41oz) Reviews

Nickname	Allen Manning - Tea Student (United States)
Review	This Gyokuro survived 4 full steeps with my favorite parameters: Leaf/Water Ratio: 6g per 100ml Steep 1: room-temp for 14 minutes Steep 2: 60c for 90 seconds Steep 3: 65c for 90 seconds Steep 3: 70c for 90 seconds I say this tea was quite delicious. Thick and syrupy the first steep, with mild aromas of parsley, grass, and a porky meatiness. Flavor was on the brighter side, notes of boiled corn, broccoli stems, algae/nori, some playful bitterness in later steeps, and a slight lemony aftertaste in the first steep.
Rating	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good... 5 of 5 Stars!
