matcha whisk tip: soak the whisk in 90°c water before first use to "bloom" or "open" it, otherwise it is harder to whisk and you will get a bamboo flavor... this is really only for the first use.

Wow, 6 teas in one session! I'm amazed you weren't bouncing off the ceiling by the end!

I've been waiting for the new Japanese teas. They're my favorite. Very exciting.

[DemonTom]

I've had Green Tea sessions like that. It'll keep you buzzing, clanging, and banging all night long! I love how that last whisking was like Don had unlocked super speed mode. I think the whisk broke the sound barrier at some point. :P

[adamsvetlik]

1 hour long video and 6 japanese greens :D :D You are crazy, Don! :D 💙

10:15 Don's sense of time is on point. Waited 50 seconds when he said he was going for 45.

Gotta love the slightly manic and pink cheeked tea-high Don 😂 Sweet Fukamushi ordered. Cheers everybody!

Please try Hon Yama Hebizuka, teas, they do a bit of withering to offer floral notes to the teas. And also try Kagoshima region for fukamushi sencha they have a citrus note to the smell aswell as Chiran senchas do, and do not forget Yame and Uji are the two places for high end gyokuro and matcha.

Though I have subscribed for directions on how to brew certain tea types, I somehow missed that you are also a SELLER! I'm extremely excited to try the first tea in this video. Sweet and approachable and easy to serve to my friends who aren't tea nerds like myself. Do you happen to have any feedback on how the leaves work after brewing for cooking?

[itssammierose]

I would be interested knowing how many teas you drink a day? If i drank this much i would have heart palpitations 😅

[Buenting-Teemuseum]

Okumidori is really the most delicious cultivar for me

[Izuuun]

13:50 that initial bitter to sweetness makes sense if you've ever made sweet sticky rice, it is surprisingly bitter, interesting how flavour works like that, Enjoying this video with a chinese green!

[jebbytunnelcoats]

Japanese greens... the ones I drink the most. Would love to see Don's take on some hojichas and a kyobancha.

[mattluck]

Not my OCD having a fit at the big bubbles 🤣 good timing though cause I'm fresh out of matcha 🍵

[originLa]

Will the sakura shiboridashi come back in stock?

[jiri]

Is 2022 Yame Saemidori Sencha on the way?

[vicrattlehead]

Drinking my Yerba mate trying to follow along. Yup, this shit bitter. A mix of that and sole thc… I think me and you are at a pretty neck and neck race to the moon

[YommiOfficial]

You should get one of those portable (waterproof) LED light strips and place it under your gong fu guru tray to illuminate the gong dao bei. Though that might be a bit distracting.

[jimmychristensen]

I am thinking about getting a stock of matcha. How long can it stay fresh? I will store it in the fridge after i open

[SDArgo_FoC]

Does anybody have an idea how much infusions can you get from Japanese greens brewed gongfu?
