Backlog from Aug 28th- 175F, 80ml gaiwan, 4g
Soft, tangy melon, thick mouthfeel. Steeped it 5 times. Leaves never fully unfurled so I’ll probably try it with hotter water next time. I liked what I got, but feel like I didn’t get everything it had to offer.
Flavors: Melon, Thick
I started my tea journey with Stash/Celestial Seasonings tea bags years ago. All loose leaf, unless I’m sick or traveling.
I like black, oolong, white, herbals, and raw/ripe pu’erh. I don’t drink green tea often.
I play video games, read, and do pottery. My current favorite tea mug is one I threw and glazed.
I generally review teas twice – initial and final steeps.
My cupboard is mostly up to date.
Ratings
85-100 are teas that I loved and want to keep in stock.
71-84 are teas that are good. I may or may not get them again. Source for daily drinkers/work teas.
60-70 are teas that I didn’t like. I’ll finish what I bought.
Anything less than 60…nope.
