Sencha Overture from Adagio Teas
71

So, I tried it again, this time only for 30 seconds, tried a sip and thought it was weak so I let it seep for another 30 seconds.
Much less vegetal, and I’m starting to get the grassy notes that Luthien pointed out. Still mostly vegetal tasting, but now kind of bitter and astringent. I really enjoy how it smells, kind of like if the tried to make an artificial-earth flavor. Still fun, but off.
Very odd, this tea and I are not working well together…

Bio

Most often thinking of tea, microbes, dinosaurs, and Romans. Tends to write novels about the littlest things and likes to put tea in the pockets of her pants to be found later in opportune moments.
Very bad English, hates full sentences and tenses, but damn good at her Latin, okay with her Greek, and will eventually be a doctor working with MSF.
