Of the teas I’ve tried in the last few weeks, this one has been my favorite by far (even if I did manage to burn my thumb with the gaiwan!). The tea brewed up pale yellow and was mild and refreshing and altogether wonderful. I can’t say I tasted lots of complex flavors or smelled amazing scents (I suspect my tastebuds and nose are substandard…) but I enjoyed it quite a lot.
First steeping was 10 seconds, then 20-ish (this was where I scalded my thumb), 40, and 60 seconds. The 2nd steeping was my favorite but all were good. No unpleasant bitterness at all.
