Out of curiosity, I tried a second steep although the first was very astringent.
This is much better. The taste is less sweet, but I’m getting much less astringency. The colour is more amber this time round and I’m finding it is much more mellow.
My love of tea began when I walked into a shop one day and they were giving out samples of jasmine silver needles. It was absolutely gorgeous, and I have been addicted to tea ever since. Jasmine silver needles remains my favourite tea to this day.
I think my favourite types are white teas and oolongs, though I will pretty much drink anything.
Aside from tea, I’m into Star Wars, music, furniture, food, Lilly Dache hats and vintage clothing.
