Gyokuro Blend Sencha from Yamamotoyama
60

By the time I finish this tea (there is probably just 2-3tsp left), I will have figured it out!
This morning, I did the same as the other day, 2 tsp in 14 oz water at 140 for 1.5 mins. Maybe it was 16 oz water. It wasn’t strong enough…but it still was good.
The 2nd steeping was 160 and it was stronger this time and much better.
I’m going to try it in less water, maybe a little hotter too, like 150.
