[Tea] Adagio - Gyokuro

We got a green tea sampler box from Adagio, one of them was Gyokuro (#7 in the sampler). 

Color: Pale yellow/green

Taste: Grassy, a little sweet (Matvei thinks it is weak for a gyokuro). I preferred it cold as opposed to hot. Matvei also thought he tasted apricot pits, a bit of bitterness. It is mild. Back of the tongue felt a little fresh, aftertaste is good. 

Verdict: Probably would not buy again if Matvei says there are stronger gyokuros out there. I thought it was fine but it didn't stand out. It was okay. 

Stars: 3/5 (Matvei 2/5)
