If the tea is prepared as recommended, ie 5 g / 200 ml, 60 ° C / 60 sec., it gives a pleasant tea "with a drop of cream" practically without bitterness and astringency. In my opinion, this is an very good price / performance ratio. Traditional preparation as gyokuro in the ratio 1 g / 10 ml, 40 ° C, 3 min. gives a distinctive tea with noticeable bitterness and a taste reminiscent of nettle.
