1st steep: not as sweet as I’d like, and the floral wasn’t at it’s strongest until the end – still pretty good, but not my favorite of this type of tea. we’ll see how subsequent steeps go…

3rd steep: much lighter and sweeter than the previous steeps – getting more of the floral sweetness in this one

2nd steep: not as intense, smoother blending of flavors
