I’m fairly sure that I oversteeped this, as it came out so incredibly bitter that I had to add sugar just to drink it. I’ll give at another try and an actual rating some other time.
Note to self: stop getting distracted while brewing your tea!
Although I do have to mention that I have this tea in an utterly gorgeous tin, dark blue with flying cranes, and the tea’s pretty much worth it just for that. I wish I remembered where I got it from.

I usually steep this tea at around 75 degrees celcius, if that’s any help.
Thanks, Jillian! I’ll try that.
