Had a baggie of this stashed in my desk drawer for a while. Figured now is as good a time as any to drink it!

The buds were originally nice and unbroken, but they got a bit broken up thanks to my careless transporting. Steeps out to a nice, very light gold with a spiced hay-like, somewhat grassy aroma. Super smooth texture, light herbal, grassy taste. A very faint hint of steamed veggies at the end that lingers as an aftertaste.

Second steep came out a deeper gold and much more spiced. It almost reminds me of some tisanes I used to drink. I also feel like I am almost getting some lemony notes out of this one.

Seems like I could get some more out of this one if I had time for another steep, but I’ve still got the rest of the tin to experiment with.

Flavors: Grass, Hay, Herbaceous, Smooth, Vegetal

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 2 min, 0 sec 4 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I don’t rate until I have had a tea several times unless it makes a very strong, immediate impact.
