Vietnam Broken green tea is made of small and broken leaf pieces, smaller than whole leaf but larger than fannings. It keeps much of the character of the leaf, but it brews faster and gives a stronger cup.
Between whole leaf and fannings
Open a sample and you will see small leaf pieces, not powder. The infusion is bright green, and the scent is clean and fresh. On the palate, Broken is strong and vegetal, with an obvious bitter note and a gentle astringency. Because the pieces are small, it brews quickly and gives a robust cup even with a short steep.
