90

This tea stands up well to longer steeps. My first trial was at 190 for 5 minutes, but that left it feeling a little understeeped so I bumped it up to 200 for 5.

The nose on the liquor reminds of an orange dreamsicle with a dash more vanilla. I was happy to find that tasting the liquor followed with about the same flavor but with a smooth underlying black tea base.

All-in-all a very robust flavored tea experience that my wife and I loved!

Actually really cool to have you taste a note of orange in the tea. Meyer is a cross between lemon and mandarin orange. Nice.

Do you know about the famous Uzu fruit of South Korea?

I have read about Yuzu, a citrus from Japan which sounds very similar to Meyer Lemons but also crosses with grapefruit.
there are several teas to be found, not unsurprisingly blended with greens and oolongs.
Do you have a link to the South Korean fruit/

Tea is an excuse to talk about what it’s like to be a human. But also: “It’s fucking tea!” as my wife says, and that’s something I can get behind. I think the balance can be found in the extremes. Be reverent sometimes and irreverent (to keep yourself honest) at other times. Moderation be damned!

Formally I resold the Zhi Tea brand through Amazon. This is the company that helped me fall in love with tea so I’ve got a soft spot for them.

Also, I manage a company that helps small brands market themselves on Amazon. T-co.org if you are interested.
