I’m very disappointed with this one.

The description sounds very enticing, the dry leaf looks absolutely beautiful and the price is high enough to expect good quality tea. I don’t know, it might still be of great quality but it tastes close to Snow Bud and has no aroma whatsoever. It’s flat, boring and totally forgettable.

I brewed it according to Upton’s recommendations and think they are about right because the tea didn’t seem to be over-steeped at all.

Preparation
180 °F / 82 °C 8 min or more

I’ve been drinking loose leaf tea all my life. I always take tea plain without adding any sweetener or milk to it. Would love to swap for tea, feel free to contact me about it.
