I steeped this in water that was near 200°F since it has characteristics like a Darjeeling, but I think the water was still too warm because the tea is really bitter at the end of the sip. It starts off light with a lemony note as well as notes of dry leaves and flowers, but then it’s just bitter. No good.
I’ll try this one again in a few days. Hopefully whatever I did to flub this cup up won’t happen again.
