Two steeps western into the work thermos.

Smooth and full bodied with a woody, drying finish. Two layers of sweetness: one that is deep and fruity like dates, and a higher pitched floral sugar tone. Caffeine low — probably not the best tea to choose for a 6am Saturday shift but I wanted something mellow. I don’t remember much else. It’s an old tea in a stamped pouch.

TeaSource sells a Brandy Oolong that I adore. Not sure if this is the same thing or not, but that has always been one of my favs.

Tea habits:

Among my favorites are all teas Nepali, sheng puerh, Wuyi yancha, Taiwanese oolong, a variety of black (red) teas from all over, herbal tisanes. I keep a few green and white teas on hand. Shou puerh is a cold weather brew. Tiny teapots and gaiwans are my usual brewing vessels when not preparing morning cups western style and pouring into my work thermos. Friend of teabags.
