Y’all know me … I’m too antsy and impatient to coddle oolongs much. However, a delicious, unseasonably cool and cloudy, sleepy afternoon encouraged me to take it easy on this one, with a very pleasant result. Smells a little flowery in the cup, but it doesn’t taste perfumey; with a lighter temp and steep time (didn’t use a thermometer; western style for just under three minutes) it had a creamy consistency that I hadn’t noticed before. Very pleasant, especially while doing hummingbird watch near the zinnias. (We’ve got some neon red ones that have been catching their little eyes.)
This is You :-D

I am glad you are having a restful day!
