Numi’s Teaview Snapshot
 | "Appreciate it’s smoothness, the light to medium body, and soft woody scent."

At first whiff, the scent of the sea and wood has me intrigued. I'm hoping for a brothy flavorful tea but as soon as it's done steeping, the brothiness has dissipated and this becomes a more streamlined woody tea. In the teapot, there's a slight aroma of seaweed and something woody...bamboo maybe?...that reminds me of relaxing by the ocean or at least eating some sushi. Once brewed the seaweed scent has completely disappeared but the woody scent has gotten a bit stronger. I'm generally not a fan of woody teas and after the first cup...I'm still not a fan. I can appreciate it's smoothness, the light to medium body, and soft woody scent. There is also a yeasty element that is reminiscent of good beer. I bet this would be great with meat or whole grain dishes.
