Last cup before i get a new tin. ordered last night because first, they going to make sachets only for this tea , Secondly, Mr. Wesley gave 25% off on this one( code saynotobags )
Steeped it according to JW parameters 185F 1tsp 8 oz 2.5 min
The brew is dark golden brown. its very bold and smooth, no astringency. Sweet but not overly, some roast but nicely done. its perfectly balanced and excellent to have a cup every morning.
resteep 3.5 min was excellent, sweeter, some nuts, slight pepper at the end of the sip.
i enjoyed it a lot.

Yes. We put two teas into sacehts to easier accomodate cafes and restaurants who wanted to use our tea. Although #3 is being replaced, it is being replaced by a very similar tea but with much better construction. I was never happy with how broken the leaves were with last year’s #3. The new one is much more beautiful – albeit more subtle and gentle than last year’s #3.
I like this one
I have a small sample of this one. I need to try this one tomorrow! Why the sachets?
I think he’s going to use the Number 3 for something else. I’m not sure what though
He said its for restaurants.
