ADVENT DAY 4, tea 2/3

I have accidentally closed this note before saving, so only short recap below. Noone is interested in long notes anyway.

Gongfu, 2 grams / 125 ml gaiwan, 80°C water, longer steeps (15 s + 15 s increments)

Interesting flavour profile: corn and corn husks, followed by hay and grassy notes, with longer steeps there are buttery notes; from 4th steep astringency and bitterness, but still perfectly serviceable tea; and can’t wait for more focused session with remaining 3 grams.

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 2 g 4 OZ / 125 ML

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
