I have finished the two batches of "standard" green teas samples from Japan and China.

Verdict

================================================== =======

Green teas from Japan were represented by (too official yeah?):
Code:
Bancha

Bancha Houjicha

Genmaicha

Kokeicha

Sencha Uji (organic)

Sencha Yamato
All of them are nice. Sometimes I have not noticed any difference between them.
Sencha Uji is outstanding. I have ordered and received 2x100gr bags of it.

================================================== =======
Green teas from China:

Code:
Bi Lo Chun

China Sencha

Dragon Well

Gunpowder (organic)

Large Leaf Green

Mao Jian (organic)

Pine Needle

Temple Of Heaven

White Monkey
1 tea I didn't like at all China Sencha
2 teas I really liked and they are my favourite besides Sencha Uji, which is simply different and cannot be compared with.
Dragon Well and White Monkey

Mao Jian that is probably the most famous and Bi Lo Chun that is supposed to be one of the best didn't impress me more than: good green teas.

On to the last batch
....to be continues....
