Day two of my custom advent calendar from Sara!

The taste of it brewed is vaguely vegetal. The color is very blue!

The flavor is very mild, but it’s… a bit vegetal and earthy. Like I just steeped some high-quality dirt. The vegetal notes are pleasant, and even the earthy flavor isn’t bad, just… not really my cup of tea. I love the color, and it could go well with other things.

Sara recommended combining it with honey and lemon juice. I didn’t have those on hand, but should pick them up when I want to brew the other sample bag.

Flavors: Earth, Vegetal

Preparation
Boiling 8 min or more 3 g 12 OZ / 354 ML

I found some honey I’d forgotten I had. It makes a big difference, even without any lemon juice. The main flavors are the same, just more pleasant.

I have enjoyed various teas most of my life, but have recently started exploring higher-end teas. Still, plain houjicha (loose-leaf or bagged) makes me feel like I’m in Japan.
