This one is very earthy. Not bad but not great either. No thanks.

Very nice. It retains the flavor of matcha (though not as strong), but is more convenient to brew, if that's important to you. I enjoyed it very much.

This is a wonderful tea. It's very forgiving to brew - I've managed to use too-hot water as well as leaving it too long without having any trouble. It's pleasantly slightly cloudy in the cup. Very smooth, pleasant flavour with a bit of nuttiness to it. Nothing sharp or bitter about it. I brew it twice before I dispose of it, could probably get a third but haven't tried. Second cup is very similar to the first, nicely consistent. It's also a slightly guilty tactile pleasure - I must admit to working the pieces back into a paste with some cold water and playing with it a couple of times when disposing of them. Silly, but fun!
