Jack and I are finding it so very informative and we check with it a lot as we venture into our Green Tea experience. I would love to try some good gyokuro and some more senchas; Jack is more into the oolongs and darjeelings. I must go check out the site where you bought your white bowl with the fish in it. Jack talks about it quite a lot.

The old one was a favorite of mine. Others are liking it, so I'd say it's a good choice for you. It is very different from fukamushi, it's more like a gyokuro.<BR/><BR/>I'll bet you could taste a good difference between the two yutaka midoris. I guess you'd like them both, but would favor the more expensive one.Wes Crosswhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06369912221341992626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482378199911616869.post-48551623315687281292008-11-09T11:55:00.000-08:002008-11-09T11:55:00.000-08:00Well, let's say that I drink 1-2 cups of green te...Well, let's say that I drink 1-2 cups of green tea (exclusively japanese) almost everyday.

If you drink tea every day, and analyze the flavors consistently, then the pricier yutaka midori will seem much better. However, if you don't have much experience with sencha, they'll probably taste the same.Wes Crosswhitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06369912221341992626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1482378199911616869.post-63033134781121420222008-11-04T01:29:00.000-08:002008-11-04T01:29:00.000-08:00Hi, nice post!I have 2 questions:1)Have somebody e...Hi, nice post!<BR/>I have 2 questions:<BR/><BR/>1)Have somebody ever tried the Organic Green Tea Kaze from O Cha?
