Nio Tea Advent Day 1
I wanted to have something different in my arsenal of holiday teas, but I’m also intimidated by the very idea of making notes on these, so we’ll see how it goes. I feel like apologizing for these before I even start.
Even at 2 minutes there was a distinct bitterness in the end of the steep, but the second round at 20 seconds was perfect. Warming, grassy, and vegetal; this was an excellent way to break up a series of black teas for day 1.

I know what you mean, it can be intimidating to write notes for nice single origin teas when you’re not experienced in that particular type of tea ha ha… But I always find it interesting to read everyone’s notes, and I’m sure others do too!
