I had around 6 grams from derk. Thank you!

Prepared grandpa, overleafed with all in my 85 ml gaiwan. Ehh, it wasn’t so clever.

I feel really weird somehow. I can’t really explain why, because I don’t know myself. Like some nostalgia coming up, or just being tense because my nieces and nephew are coming tomorrow for a week.

Anyway, prepared this tea of char aroma when dry. I have to say, it wasn’t too appealing for me, but I hoped it will disappear with rinse or first steeps. Please note, that this note was written while I already finished it and I was drinking it in family circle (is that valid in English?).

First steeps were really mineral and char like. Not even much of roastiness for me. Then it started to transform into stonefruits as well my headache started to grow. I don’t really blame tea for it, but unfortunately I think it took its part as well. After few steeps it became really fruity, but it is as well quickly over. Not my favourite oolong I guess. Thanks for chance to try it though, derk.

Flavors: Char, Fruity, Mineral, Stonefruit

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 15 sec 6 g 3 OZ / 85 ML

Oh boy, it was huge headache afterwards. I really wonder if it was tea-caused or it was just bit of everything.

Sorry you had such a bad headache. I hope the tea didn’t contribute to it! Thanks for trying this, though. I wasn’t sure if I was crazy thinking this was a sub-par tea. Maybe it didn’t age so well.

Yeah, I think so. Maybe it turned out bit weird after 4 years.
