I brewed up 1 mini toucha in a 100ml gaiwan at 210f. I gave two rinses about 10 sec each to really open it up. There is absolutely no pile funk on these little guys. The first steep at about 15 seconds gave a nice mouthfeel and honey sweetness. This is a great little everyday ripe. I like the 2011 Mengku Ripe Mini Touchas a lot and these hold there own as well. A nice thick mouthfeel with a honey sweet smell and taste make these little guys well worth a buy (get a couple of handfuls). They are affordable little gems. Scott has yet to disappoint with the YS pressings that I have tired and this tea is no different. Some dislike mini touchas but up to this point I have not had the same experience. I would maybe recommend brewing in a 70ml gaiwan or something in that range for a stronger brew as these are about 5g touchas. Toss one in the gaiwan or cup and enjoy. Quick, easy and tasty…..and cheap!
