[Limited] Competition Grade Gyokuro Pinnacle (30g/1.06oz) Reviews

Nickname	Allen Manning - Tea Student (United States)
Review	This tea shined when I brewed with my favorite parameters for Gyokuro: Leaf/Water Ratio: 6g per 100ml Steep 1: room-temp for 14 minutes Steep 2: 60c for 90 seconds Steep 3+: add 5 degrees each steep for 90 seconds I enjoyed 4 steeps, and let me tell you this tea was amazing! Leaves are large and well-sifted, beautifully dark and even green color. Light aroma notes of parsley, and something I can only describe as "sweet". Thick, luscious texture with playful dryness and light bitterness in the later steeps. Flavor notes of sweet canned corn, light algae, and a long lingering finish. Simply divine!
Rating	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good... 5 of 5 Stars!
