Notes on Green tea



Green tea is one of the beverages of choice here, it appears as standard on lunch
menus and is often served with food. It seems to come as a fine green powder and stirred into hot water makes a thin green infusion. It is drunk without milk like chinese tea but doesnt have the aromatic flavour, tasting slightly bitter with a sort of cabbagey flavour. (I know sounds great doesn't it) Its not unpleasant unless served as an iced drink. WARNING WARNING WARNING.... Do not try iced Green tea. Maybe I had a bad ones but this is a cloudy swamp water green and tastes fishy, See the picture (before I tried it)
