No. 30 Shizuoka Gyokuro + Yakult (靜岡玉露養樂多)

Today I was going to have a Japanese Gyokuro with some aloe vera topping, since I assumed this kind of topic will be not too strong and will still give the green tea a chance to show its own character. However, due to my still not too good language skills, I couldn't read the Chinese characters for aloe vera out loud, so that I just pointed on it. So I thought. When I saw the tea shop clerk pouring two bottles of yakult in a cup, I figured that I might have pointed on the wrong topping. So, I got Gyokuro Yakult tea. First, I was a bit upset, since the green tea yakult didn't really seem to be my cup of tea. But gyokuro is way better than jasmine green tea and therefore, my accidental choice turned out to be a great combination.
