1/23/14 Afternoon pot. 3g/6oz/212F/5min. Revisiting an old favorite after a few years. The aroma of the tea in the bag is as lovely as I remember – bright and winey, currant and raisin scents. The scent of the brew is similiar, with a note of creaminess I don’t remember. This brew is stronger then I recall, more upfrontly bitter and astringent, and darker in the cup. The recommended measure of the tea – 1 heaping tsp – weighed 2.15g, so perhaps it’s overleafed at 3g/6oz. I’ll experiment with that another day. Right now, I’ll just enjoy getting back together with this tea.
