Seriously. We have this one brand, which I just wanted to try out, and it tastes like fish.

Maybe the Malaysians, or wherever the stuff came from, got their export products mixed up? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anyway, I refuse to drink this cup of green tea that I have on the desk right now. At least until further notice. No matter how much I try to think "It's green tea, man! It's good for me health!" it tastes awful. [img]graemlins/1disgust.gif[/img]

I should really buy some other brand.

I drink green tea myself from time to time, and i can tell you it's not supposed to taste like fish. So whatever it is you're having overthere, it's not green tea.

I think it's supposed to taste like hot tap water normally. At least that's what I've discovered with most green teas. And don't get me going about white tea.

As far as tea goes, I prefer black or a few of the stronger herbal teas.

I used to drink some other sort of green tea some time ago. It tasted great, not at all like fish. ;) I'm just thinking whether throwing this stuff away would be a good choice or not.

By the way, it's a heap of pressed leaves, not divided into small tea packages.

Put some vodka in it or something.

The green tea that I have tasted, does not taste like fish, so I think there is something seriously wrong with the product you picked up.

Try jasmine tea. It's similar to green tea but has more flavour. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Green tea comes from Japan, uss.
