Water: 500ml at 212°F
Tool: make your own paper teabag
Steep Time: a little over 5 minutes https://www.teaity.com
Served: Hot
Tasting Notes:
Dry Leaf Smell: pepper, so strong nothing else is making it to register as a small
Steeped Tea Smell: pepper, something sweet hiding under the pepper
Flavor: pepper! with a cinnamon sweet finish
Body: Full
Aftertaste: pepper!
Liquor: nearly opaque cloudy light orange brown
Post-Steep Additives:
added sugar
more cinnamon, hints of banana
chocolate coconut finish
I think this requires sweetening to bring out all the flavors.
Very fun!
I got this as part of my Amoda Tea subscription which i sadly can no longer afford. It was heat fun.
