Tea House 278

Recieved this a sample with my order from Tea House 278. Brewed in my Breville, this was a satisfying morning “wake up” tea. Top notes of cocoa, roasted coffee beans and maple syrup. Hints of toffee and whole wheat pancakes. Yum.

The first infusion of this is sweet with orchid and honey notes. The second infusion, also 30 seconds, has a touch of bitterness on the tip of the tongue. The third infusion at 30 seconds has a lighter orchid and honey flavor and the bitterness is gone. I should be able to get one more infusion of 30 seconds then I’ll start lengthening the steeping times.
