Playful bitterness. Bitter can be angry, but this isn’t that. Super wet.
Not the most concentrated liquor; I was tempted to stuff in more leaves, but the water was already barely covering them. Maybe they are a little dry? I started pushing steeps longer to try to compensate.
I steeped the hell outta this and never arrived at the sour-sweet cherries or any other promised bits. Watered out and away. Feels like something could be wrong.
derk, thank you, and have you had this recently? Maybe I should try adding a humidity button to the other 3g?
Flavors: Bitter, Watery

Oh no :( Haven’t had it for several years, though it’s one of only a few cakes stored in its original bag. I’ll sample soon, and in the meantime, take it out of the bag.
How are you storing otherwise?
Cakes are piled in a couple of stoneware crocks with some terra cotta what are they called… saucers used as lids that I intermittently dampen with distilled water. Have the crocks sitting in front of my sliding glass door so they get sun-warmed.
Cool, I’m starting in a crock-wise direction down here, too. I’ll be interested to hear how you find this one.
