Smells SOOOOO good!
I saw a talk about oolong teas by Jenny Lo yesterday, and had to pick up a couple teas to try. They had some 10g sample sizes, which made me really happy… although I possibly should have bought more of this one. It smells SO GOOD!
I’m steeping in my ~120-ish ml kyusu (of course), and used about 1/3 of the packet. The rest of it will be going to a friend.
I’m just steeping till it “looks right”, so the first was about 30 seconds or so.
My frog army is enjoying the taste as well. ;) https://www.instagram.com/p/-ZRPqyx5Cs/
This tea is delicious. It’s not quite as sweet or honey like as I was expecting, but it is a really solid tea. At 30 seconds you get some sweetness, the maltiness, a touch of astringency. Yum.
The only cure for a tea hangover is more tea.
The third steep I accidentally steeped a bit longer, and I totally see what they mean about the minty finish. So tasty.
sounds delicious
Om nom tea.
