Sipdown and I really liked this. :)
Malty, smooth, mellow, fruity, lightly sweet of a mixture of honey, molasses and brown sugar notes. Lots of berry fruity goodness along with sweet potatoes. I got some slightly good bitter dark cocoa notes which really played well with the fruitiness. I liked that it was a stronger flavor, full-bodied. I think I would really enjoy this with a teaspoon of milk in the mornings because of the stronger flavor/notes. It’s a drag that I have to have a little milk in my tea in the mornings now but I still can enjoy nekked tea :P in the evenings since it’s not on an empty stomach.
Prepared it gongfu 5g, 6 steeps: quick rinse, 5s, 10s, 15s, 20s, 30s, 50s at 185℉.
Mood: A little somber, thinking of the El Paso shooting. Thinking of them and their families. I was just at a busy shopping center the other day…
Flavors: Berries, Cocoa, Dark Bittersweet, Dried Fruit, Fruity, Malt, Smooth, Sweet Potatoes

Feeling it, too, Kawaii. The Gilroy Garlic Festival here in CA last weekend…
Derk :( and now after a nap, 10 more dead and 16 injured in Dayton, OH.
Same here. 250 mass shootings in 2019 already. It worries me that people are becoming desensitized to it all :(
A sad state our country has become with all these shootings.
Is this the 2019 harvest, Kawaii?
250?!?! That is terrible. It breaks my heart every time this happens, but apparently it happens so often I missed a few. :/
Kawaii, that’s my hometown. Why.
derk, I’m so sorry. I think of all the people affected each time, even if they are just FROM the place these shootings occurred. So much worry and negativity so many people have to go through, the victims of course, but really millions of people affected each time this happens. I will never understand why someone is okay with shooting anyone, let alone strangers or random people. No excuse.
I just heard a news about it. It is terrible and I still do not understand why laws are there so… “weak” (is it a good word?).
El Paso, Dayton… Weird.
Just… praying they will change it.
derk, Dayton is your hometown? :( I’m so sorry.
tea-sipper, yes I believe it’s 2019. Sorry I missed that question and am just now answering!
