Sencha Fukujyu at Wild Ginger Restaurant
The first cup of this sencha (green spider leg from Shizuoka) was actually tasty. It had good balance of sweet, vegetal, astringent and slightly bitterness. But since the tea was served in a pot and left brewed, the second and the third cups became very bitter. Someone needs to tell the restaurant not to cook this tea please!
Vietnamese tea at Green Leaf Restaurant
It was a free flow drink that was served with our meals. Didn't know what it was and was not able to ask the waitstaff either (the restaurant was very busy at that time). The tea tasted a little bit like Bori Cha (Barley Tea) served in Korean restaurants.
Delicious 2010 Spring and Aged Taiwanese Oolong at Floating Tea Leaves
Without doubt the teas we tried at FLT were the best teas we had in Seattle and they were all free! Shiuwen brewed the newly arrived Spring teas and an aged Baozhong for us to drink together. The 13 years old Baozhong was from Chin Hsin varieatal from Pinglin. The 2010 Spring teas were Farmer's Choice Baozhong and Alishan. All was delicious.
