This is a continuation of last night’s tea session. The third steeping and beyond were average tasting of a more mature green tea, although the roasted taste lightened with each steeping so by the sixth it was almost gone completely. The first two steepings were much too strong for me personally, but the tea mellowed out eventually the more you infuse it and that’s where it really shined. Whether I’ll have the patience to sit through those first two infusions again is another matter…

I get easily excited and tend to get into the habit of collecting things I get really really excited about- books, fountain pens, fragrance, tea and any number of things. Mostly I’m just really excitable.
My favorites are oolongs! Also high for me are greens and ripe pu’erh. But I do like most teas and I’ll try most anything at least once. I just don’t like rooibos, smokey, or banana flavored things.
My name is Christina, but there’s also another Christina with a cat as a profile picture, so I go by Flyawaybirdie.
Feel free to drop me a message anytime. I love messages/letters/etc.
NOTE!: My cupboard is not up to date. Not even close. But it does have a bunch of teas I have pretty substantial quantities of, so I put them in there anyways because I’m unlikely to run out soon. Also, if I wrote a note on it and didn’t include a TTB name or a sipdown note, I’m likely to still have some even if it’s not in my cupboard, so feel free to ask if you want to swap!
Steepsterite since 2014. :D
