Today I felt like having something a little different, so I mixed together three different Yunnan blacks.
-2013 Hong Yun Yiwu Mountain Wild Arbor black tea cake from Yunnan Sourcing: A very fruity, floral, almost sheng-like hong cha
-Some cheap dian hong from an AliExpress seller: A very earthy, malty black with a honey sweetness
-And bit of Adagios Yunnan Gold, which is a very silky and smooth tippy Yunnan
Three different extremes of Yunnan black tea that balance each other quite well :)
Brewed in my black tea yixing, which has started to take on a really gorgeous patina

sounds good to me!
It really was! The results were better than I expected. I think I liked it more than any of the three by themselves
what exactly is random steepings and various artists? is it where you post custom blends?
Basically the misc of steepster.
Kirkoneill, I started the random steepings category a year or so ago, as a place to post whatever: teas that are no longer available (so why bother creating an entry for them), home made blends, or whatever you feel like using it for, LOL.
oh! i get it now :D
