I bought this a while back and am just getting around to drinking it. It is a nice ripe with little bitterness and a fair amount of fermentation flavor. I would say I noticed the earthy taste until the sixth steep. Wasn’t really paying attention to the specifics but it had a nice sweet taste.

I brewed this twelve times in a 150ml gaiwan with 10.9g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec, 1 min, 1.5 min, and 2 min. I could have gotten a couple more steeps out of the leaves.
