I experimented with steeping this tea in a more traditional fashion using more leaf, slightly cooler water, not mixing the leaves while they steeped, etc. The results were so grassy and bitter that I couldn’t even finish the cup and had to dump it out, something i almost never do with tea – steeping it subsequently for 30 seconds was better, but still slightly bitter. Bleh, this tea is going to lose points for that – I liked the Murchie’s version so much better.
