East West Green With Lemon Myrtle Sample Sachet

Australian grown sencha from the river flats of north east Victoria, blended with native Australian lemon myrtle. Lemon myrtle is a far more intense citrus than lemon peel, and it changes the grassy sencha base into something quite bright.

Green tea is the category people most often buy and then abandon, usually because they brewed it badly once. Four serves gives you room to get the water temperature right on the second or third attempt, which is when most people discover they do like green tea after all.

This is the important part. Boil the kettle, then let it stand for a couple of minutes until it is around 80 degrees, and steep for only two to three minutes. Boiling water on green tea makes it bitter and that bitterness is not the tea's fault.

$3.50 here against $16.00 for 100g. East West Green in full size, and the rest of the green teas if you want to compare the Australian grown ones against the Chinese.
