Yeah Baby!
We just had an awesome brunch, which I will probably blog about later: gluten free almond flour peach coffeecake (to die for), homemade sausage patties (I have mastered the art), & eggs.
I wanted something bold, & I got it!
I went for the full blown, “surrender to the dark side” 7 minute steep, & OMG, what a great contrast to the lightly sweet coffee cake, the tngy spicy sausage patties, & the buttery eggs! The sense of satisfaction I got from this cup reminds me of my old coffee drinking days: bold, rich, deep, dark (can a tea GET any darker?). It’s gourmet earthy chocolate with a hint of spice.
May the force be with you!

holy cow 7 minute steep!
I just resteeped for another 7, & it was still a nice cup.
I’ve tried it with short steeps, a 5 min, & now 7. I enjoyed them all! :)
The tea judges steep long like this for all tea, then later…they might taste at a lighter strength. We’ve been doing this with new tea samples at Happy Luckys because the World Tea Expo classes taste that style. I personally like a longer steep around the third round too!
Yes! That’s what I’m talkin’ about!
