Backlogging…
I think I am going to have to try this one again – so when I do I am hoping the rating will change. I only infused for 3 minutes and I found it bitter. Perhaps I had high expectations for this tea or many it was human error on my part. I didn’t think I used too much loose leaf, actually less than I usually do…oh well. I mean it wasn’t bad but it wasn’t better than, Adagio’s, for example.
The aroma was pleasant but not over the top. I think it would have been really good if I didn’t get that bit of bitterness, actually, that is why I am going to try it again because I really think that it IS better or at least can be.
And I am not saying the bitterness was too much to handle…it was like black tea, strawberry, and the stems & leaves along with this…so maybe the bitterness of the stem – in comparison – if you can see what I mean…
Again, I have a hunch this is going to be better the next time I try it…but for now I would say between 65 and 70…maybe closer to 65
been wanting to try that as well
It’s one of the better strawberry black teas out there :]
