Hello communiTEA drinkers,

Today we have Guizhou Twist!

This green tea is from the Meitan county in Guizhou and bears white grape and plum notes with a blossomy finish from its slender, curly deep green leaves.

Was it love at first sip for you?

I'm not usually a green tea drinker, but was quite lovely! Definitely got the white grape and grassy hits and I really enjoyed that it wasn't overly acidic as soon as it hit the mouth. I might actually get a bag of this!

I like this one! Although I didn't get the fruit/floral notes, I tasted the grassy/savory vegetable notes. This tea reminds me of kukicha for the mellow, grassy flavor and not very acidic.

Definitely love at first sip for me! This is almost as good as Sleeping Dragon, my every day go-to. I'm not good at detecting the fruity notes & such. I just know what I like, as they say. This one is tasty to me! :)

Really glad I went back for a second infusion on this one. The first infusion was a bit too astringent for my taste, and I couldn't catch any of the grape or plum notes mentioned in the description. I'm glad I kept an open mind, because this tea really shines on its second and third infusions! Floral and fruity with a pleasant aftertaste. If I order more, I'll probably "wash" the leaves before I brew a cup.

Delighted again today. I hated green teas when I started my tea journey. Now they are among my favorite. Today's has familiar notes on the bitter and sweet side of flavors. Not sure it's one I'd buy again, since I have so many favorite green teas, but it was a pleasure trying it.
