Jade Snail Tea

Howdy Y’all! This is Maggie, here to introduce you to another fun new tea. Now if you follow our instagram (@herestheteasd you should :o) you saw that we got a fun shipment of new teas. This Interestingly named tea is one of those! We found the company through instagram actually. They liked our post, and geeves and I went, ‘Hey Tea, Thats Cool!’ so we got some, because we have no self control, Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

We chose this one mainly because we thought “Hey we do mostly black tea so far, lets switch it up!” and the name sounded really fun.

The Company is Here I would recommend checking them out.

Geeves’ Thoughts:

  • 6/10
  • Frankly it was an above average green tea
  • But there wasn’t much to it, no florals, no spice. It was just green tea.
  • It was so traditional that even TJ, our boring tea friend who thinks Genmaicha is too saucy, likes it. He did say it was great though. So a good choice for the traditional drinker.

Maggie’s Thoughts

  • 9/10! Wow , This fell so high above my expectations, color me surprised.
  • But in all seriousness this was all that I look for in a Traditional green tea.
  • The rolled form of it lent itself to resteeping very well, and it never felt to bitter
  • Because ya girl maggie doesnt do bitter. Strong tea?–> Yes. Bitter Tea?–> Yeah no im gone. So this Tea really hit the spot as a solid green tea, that was nice and smooth with a hit of a grassy finish.
  • It didn’t have any peaks or off-putting astringencies, and it really won me over.
  • There wasn’t anything extra, like floral, or herbaceous notes. And i actually really appreciated that. I love, Love flavored teas, don’t get me wrong. But occasionally its nice to have just a nice smooth and simple cup of tea.
  • Wow as a Black Tea Girl who would have thought that such a high score  would be given to a traditional green tea. I am Officially Shook.
  • That all from me folks, Im going to wander my apartment attempting to find reason in the universe again( with a cup of this tea of course) Toodles. xoxo

TL:DR

  • 7.5/10
  • A simple traditional tea, nice and smooth with a grassy finish.
