Yum! This tea was great today! I steeped it at green tea temps and it was vanilla heaven. I couldn’t stop sipping on it. Half way through the cup, I added a bit of the rock sugar I purchased in Germany. The caramel flavor really popped! I think I like it both sweet and not sweet. Awesome!
In the future I’ll have to remember to use a lower steep temperature.

Uniquity, congrats on the new kettle! I test water temps by sticking my finger in the water. (I have clean fingers, I swear.) Needless to say, I’m a bit envious. :) Try the lower temp and let me know how it goes! Do it for science!
Mine’s nothing fancy – It’s a $40 Sunbeam, though I think they are being discontinued. My Dad and Brothers gave it to me for Christmas. I was considering getting myself the Black and Decker variable temp kettle, that one was only $50.
Is that the key? Now that I have a snazzy variable temp kettle I’ll have to give it a shot!
@ Uniquity – which one did you get?
