KYOBANCHA
Comes in a huge bag. Very unique. It would go excellently with moon cakes. Worth a try. I feel there is no need to boil liters of it. It would not fit into a kyusu. I use a large gaiwan and adjust amount of tea to taste.

KYOBANCHA FROM TANIGUCHIEN
Light on taste, compensated by strong aromatic notes best akin to smoke seaweed. Hints of firewood can be found as well.

surely different
This tea is indeed unique. I'd rather the other types honestly. The shipping was fast and Tealife's support is fantastic.
