Default Anyone have any stand-out greens this year?

I actually didn't buy any major new greens this year because I had
been on other pursuits, and didn't follow them closely either... now I
need to stock up on a few and feel a bit lost. Has anyone here had
anything spectacular or any stand-outs this year? (can be Chinese or
Japanese, but I'm mainly hunting for Japanese greens)

I normally keep 2 senchas (one lighter steamed and one heavier), 1
gyokuro, and I just ran out of matcha (usucha). I like the brighter
tasting greens and I love a grassy/fishy/kelpy quality. (I always have
BLC and jasmine in stock and I'm pretty good on Chinese greens right
now)

I've got a cart built at o-cha but thought I put a feeler out and see
if there are any special ones i should snag or check out.

Not for me, either: why should I stream tea from them when I can
download it from other vendors?
