Tried to get around the fact that I didn’t really have enough of this left over to get a full steep out of by combining it with my Twinings Black Currant, Ginseng and Vanilla – since the residue the first time I tried this tea was quite pleasant.
Sadly, this time around I got mostly Black Currant and almost no Black Tea. Also, I really need to figure out how long to steep the Twinings stuff, because I keep overshooting the mark and turning into this sharp taste of not quite ripe vegetation. And I didn’t even keep it in that long this time! Man, that tea is so temperamental! Still, it wasn’t untasty just a bit too tart and a bit too…hm, I guess I’d call it sharp.

I just can’t bring myself to click “like” on this one. The Twinings note above made me smile, but then I scrolled down and read this part and it was all about teh sad :(
I know, the interesting negative notes are all like “well I like the way you wrote this up/I think this is interesting, but I don’t want you to think that I like the fact that you had a bad experience” It’s a dilemma!
Finicky teas are frustrating, aren’t they?
