2 tsp for 300mL water @100C, steeped five minutes Western style, drunk bare.
I got distracted. I meant to steep this only four minutes.
Dark copper liquor. Lots of sweet potato, similar to Golden Fleece, but not as fuzzy in the mouth-feel, and with lots of deep cocoa notes. Roasty.

I prefer straight teas but will try almost anything … so long as it’s not tainted with hibiscus. I loathe hibiscus.
Floral oolong and complex black teas are my favourites.
