No sour notes in this tea today. I used tap water instead of brita filtered water. I don’t really like it, though. The flavour has almost a burnt quality which I’m really not enjoying. I think i need to set it aside for a couple weeks and revisit it.
Again, i did a western style brew. I just re-used the tea leaves from yesterday and did a 5 minute steep.
Ps. I have the autumn 2012 harvest.

It’s a shame you’re not a big fan. But I guess that’s what makes the world diverse, hey? :) I’m actually kind of surprised that I liked it so much, since I can’t stand teas with added chocolate, so it stands to reason that I wouldn’t like naturally chocolate either, but I did!
But yes, perhaps a different harvest would make the difference. I heard that this one REALLY varies.
I like it better with sugar, for sure. It’s so weird though, having heard so much about it, to not like it. :)
