Second steep: same leaves, same temperature, same amount of time.
The taste is definitely grassier this time around, and reminds me more of a lighter green tea. The smooth, buttery finish is still there, but the taste overall is more crisp than on the first steep. This is the first tea in which I’ve experienced such a notable difference between the first and second steep. I’ll probably give it a third steep just out of curiosity. I wonder if the taste will soften at all.
Flavors: Butter, Floral, Grass, Smooth, Vegetal

Oh goodness, it’s outrageous. Around $30 for 50g or 2 oz. I would never pay that much for it, but it is a great tea.
So Teavana carries a yellow tea? I cringe at the thought of what they’re charging for it.

They just had a sale with this tea 50% off. I ordered some and can hardly wait to try it!!!
I think it’s definitely worth a try. I quite enjoyed it.
