Good for green

So, you get the bias here.

It’s melon and the ground it grows in. Successfully cold brews for iced tea, while coming out stronger than you might think.

If you like green, get this one.

Bright but not grassy

The Bright green tea is a Japanese tea which I prefer in green teas. It was very light, fresh, smooth, not grassy, and had a citrus undertone to it ( 175 for 4 min). I really liked it and didn't need to add anything to it !

Definitely for the green tea lover

I’m not a fan of green tea (not even in an Asian restaurant). This tea only reinforced that feeling. It has a strong grassy aroma. I did not detect the honeysuckle notes mentioned on the package. I plan to gift this tea to my sister who adores green teas - that’s why I gave it a 4 star rating. I know she will enjoy it. But it’s not for me.

Just delightful!

This tea might make me a convert! I don’t normally like green tea because of the astringency, but this is every bit as smooth and mild as described! It’s light and bright, gently fruity and floral, and just delightful overall!

Nice Traditional Green Tea

This is not a blended tea so if you're looking for sweet tea or blends with fruit and flowers, this is not it. The only ingredient is green tea. Bright Green is a nice, everyday, traditional green tea. It has the grassy and vegetal notes that you would expect from a green tea with a slightly toasted notes, and a lingering aftertaste and astringency of citrus. I brewed mine at the suggested temperature of 175 F and steeped for 3 minutes (as opposed to the 4-5 minutes listed on the bag).
