A calming, smooth gren tea with a very distinctive flavor.
A remarkable tea, unlike any other green tea I've tasted. I brew two cups for 4 minutes.
Sky Between the Branches is a gentle, slight exotic, green tea whose leaves are twisted and curled in wonderful patterns. A teaspoon of this tea, steeped slowly, yields a marvelously unique beverage — like a rare find in nature. It is definitely my go-to tea for special occasions.
Sky Between The Branches tastes floral, similar to jasmine tea, and very mild. It reminds me a bit of pie crust, having a very subtle richness. I have needed a bit of time to learn how to brew and enjoy this tea. I don’t care for Jasmine tea, but I do enjoy this one.
Without a doubt one of the best green teas Republic offers. Granted, its a little pricey, but in my opinion it is well worth the price!
I drank this tea about 20 years ago and it is still the same quality of tea as it was then. Light and crisp.
Purchased the loose leaf tin. Switched from tea bags due to micro plastics. Green teas can be bitter this one is not.
The flavor of Sky Between the Branches is just right for me; so smooth. I like adding a pinch of lavender petals to the brew.
I ordered a tin of this first and loved it so much that I ordered a refill. It's a lovely, smooth green tea.
A bit too earthy for my taste. Had an impure flavor to it that I found disappointing. Not the best green tea offered by The Republic.
Sky Between The Branches is something special — sweet, delicate, and airy. I find that best brewing practice wants the water at about 175°F, and that "washing" the leaves with a quick one-minute steep will waken their flavor better than simply brewing and drinking. This tea can be brewed several times, though you will want to extend your brew time a bit for each cup after the first.
This is a wonderful light green tea. Has a distinct "earthy" smell and taste. well worth the price!
I wanted to try this one, and found it to be a very nice light tea with great soft flavor. I have lots of greens and yellow and oolongs for winter, but find them too heavy at times in warmer weather. So I'm happy to have found something for warmer months.
I've bought this before. It has. Light smooth taste that just suits me in the morning
Sky Between the Branches is my very favorite of the full-leaf teas offered by The Republic of Tea. I look forward to a cup of this tea every morning, because it has a distinctive, but wonderfully pleasant flavor, without being overblown or gimmicky. It is a great compliment to a hearty breakfast!
This tea is so good an has such a great flavor…it is the only green tea I will settle for
This is one of the most exotic green teas I've ever tasted. It tasted earthy and full of herbs. It tasted like I'm eating grass.
I'm not sure if others have tasted this but this tea has a smoky flavor to me. It's very interesting and I like it a lot!
I drink a pot of this every morning--sometimes toss in a piece of lemon grass or a couple mint leaves, and it helps me get my day started right. I usually will steep 2-3 mins and then save the leaves and use one or two more days.
I first tried Sky Between the Branches because I liked the name so much, and now it's my favorite tea for evenings. Green tea works well because of the relatively low caffeine content, and Sky Between the Branches has the best flavor of any green tea I've tried.
It takes longer to let the full scent and flavor to envelope you, but its well worth it.
This is my favorite summer time morning green tea! The flavor is excellent, never bitter, and it does make me think of looking up between tree branches at a beautiful blue summer sky.
The aroma reminds me of doctor's gloves in a hospital but don't let that deter you from the wonderful nutty flavor! Sky Between the Branches is a special tea that harmonizes the sweet, nutty flavor with slightly bitter grassy tones. It's a tea worth trying!
This is probably my new favorite green tea. It is almost nutty in it's taste but its not the primary note. It lacks that grassy character that I do like but its so unique I love it. It's very mellow and not full-body like some others and I am able to get 4 steepings from it. I have not come across anything like this tea anywhere else.
What a beautiful name for the best tasting green tea that I've tasted so far. The taste is very delicate and never bitter like some of the others I've tried. Love this stuff.
There is something special about this tea. A very peaceful feeling descends upon me during and after sipping a cup. It is a most pleasant sensation. Try it and see!
Sometimes absence does make the heart grow fonder. I hadn't re-ordered Sky the last time, and just brewed up a pot after receiving my order last week. With a little care to brew w/correct water temp. this green tea is delicious. Good color and mouth feel, not overpowering grassy taste but a good balance w/slight nutty-butter (probably chestnut) undertones.
If green tea drank green tea this is what it would drink. No frills and really good.
Superb green tea with extraordinary calming ffects. I have enjoyed this tea for eight years and the quality of the product has remained pleasantly consistant.
Upon opening the container, I was surprised by how sweet the tea smelled. The brewed leaves carried a similar smell, one reminiscent of White Peony (sweet, a bit fruity, with a hint of perhaps strawberry), albeit with the very distinct green tone of spinach or green beans.The dry leaves themselves are quite endearing and attractive. They look pretty cool, to be honest. As for taste, the tea was wonderful. The liquor is a very pale green, making one feel as though it's a bit ethereal. The color reminds me a bit of a honeydew melon, albeit a bit darker in color. The tea has a taste that vaguely reminds me of honeydew melon. The tips (the dry leaves are interspersed with white, so I assume there are tips present)produce a natural sweetness along with a bit of fruitiness, which highlights the more serious vegetal flavors of the green leaves. The initial impact of the tea is similar to Dragon's Well, although lighter. However, while having the spinachy tones, it lacks the darker undertones of roasted eg
This is a very mild tasting tea, to me. I like it at night and first thing in the morning. Its so light tasting that I don't like to have anything else with it so I can capture the full flavor. Very pretty tea and smells wonderful.
Sky Between the Branches is the perfect green tea to enjoy sipping. The chestnut flavor is deep and natural, yet refreshing at the same time. Great choice for anyone.
I like dark, heavy tea - mostly. This is my favorite green tea. Subtle in flavor, not like fast-food chinese or fakey sport-drink stuff. My friend and I share this tea when we visit and are always surprised when we finish a third pot. Great tea to learn appreciation for the Green varieties.
truly chestnutty rich deep flavor.
I add about one quarter teaspoon of stevia and let the tea cool a little. It has a sweetness and a note that is like no other green tea. I believe it is called chesnut on the liner notes. Whatever it is, it's unique, and very delicious.
