For this morning shift, we have Kukicha Osada. No bitterness and it tastes like pan fried grass clippings. It’s actually quite nice.

This Japanese green tea is called Miyazaki Sabou Kamairicha. Flavor wise the best I can think of is diluted boiled celery.

My Japanese green tea samples came in. It’s very similar to the one I got before, but some of them are different. And the big bag of Noike Houjicha on the left I got for my sister.

To ensure that I’ll always get my good caffeine in the morning, I brought in my kyusu and chawan(black matcha bowl) so I can have Japanese green tea every day while I’m at work. I’m drinking Gyokuro Okumidori and it feels like I’m drinking a warm bowl of vegetable soup.
