Top Leaf by Mello Monk
I've been meaning to try this for a while now, and I have to say that I'm not super impressed. My first disappointment came when I looked at the bag of leaves I have. The bottom layer of the bag was completely powder, and the rest of the dried leaves looked really small and broken. I dumped some leaves in the pot and started my first infusion. As the leaves expanded, my first guess was right, every last one was cut or torn. The flavor wasn't bad, as far as green teas go. It was very light, even the last cups of the pot. I did have to pour the tea through a strainer into my cup because of how small the pieces were. It was a satisfactory tea, and one I won't mind drinking while I have it. I doubt that I would ever order it. The only reason I might order some, is to see if the leaves really are as broken up as these seem to be, or if these are broken because it was shipped to me by an acquaintance.
