Review | The frangrance is strong but this brews quite mild. It's a very balanced tea and I can appreciate its elevated status amongst HOUJICHA. I've bought a second packet due to its limited availability and find that it does a lot to relax and calm the body and mind after stressful events or just in the case that you wish to prepare yourself for sleep. The vitamin C content is notable, and my friends have found the medicinal properties of that compound useful in fighting off colds and flu. By the way, there is simply no comparison between this tea and the varieties of 'roasted green tea' available in Japanese domestic supermarkets. My only caveat is that once you've had this product, you may find yourself inadvertently grimacing when an inferior tea makes it way to your palette. I ended up feeding the plants with the lower-grade stuff and hope all the HOUJICHA I drink is as good as this one. |
