Drinking this 1993 Toucha raw teabag I bought to put in with everyone’s mysterious package for the mystery group buy. James at teadb said that was was worth buying, meaning I should try it. I heard some bad and good things… and then I was like, damnit… I need to just drink it, so now I now!
I took the bag and smelled it, immediately knew it was from 1993 :P
Decided to go easy before hardcore. Took the bag and dropped it in my gaiwan and poured that hot water ontop. After 10 seconds I pulled it and started my first of 15 brews, FROM A TEABAG!
This stuff comes out like a light shou and almost like a light soy sauce which is intimidating at first as I don’t like darker sheng. First sip made me go, ‘what the heck’. I signed online and acted like a kid who is too excited and can’t contain it. This stuff is really really taste. The depth is there, the taste is pure, and the brewing inside a gaiwan for 10 seconds is simple and provides pleasant brew after brew. There’s no doubt that I will be buying more of this as well as seeing what two bags are like rather than one. Very glad that I provided this for others as I feel like it will be a fun time :)
