1st brewing
This tea has a mix of sweetness to it, with a light floral note. It still has a nice full-bodied umami note and a hint of freshness. The tea also takes on a lighter nutty note mostly in the direction of hazelnut, but drifting off into sweet corn.
2nd brewing
Super soft, more full bodied and denser in terms of texture. It has a light banana peel and apricot note. The umami note subsides and leaves more space for the softer and sweeter notes of the tea. Sill a nice and fresh tingling sensation coming from the tea.
