278 tasting notes

Method: super shou

Aroma: Cocoa fo sho

Flavor: I had to get a little further in before I could taste the chocolate. But I was picking up some nice leathery notes and overall pleasantness before that. It’s been a little while since I first had this. I’m glad I didn’t give up on shou. Somehow I had a feeling that we would find a way to really click!

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 0 min, 15 sec 3 tsp 3 OZ / 88 ML

What is super shou?

SarsyPie

It’s about like this -

Method: rinse 10-10-10-15-20 and dump. Steep 20-25-30 and drink. 5 g, 4 oz, 200 degrees

I have to rinse ALOT to enjoy shous. It gets rid of the extreme earthy flavors!

Maybe its like baby steps. each time you gonna dump less and less???
