My first aged tea. Wow. First steep was smokey, woody with a sweetness like burnt caramel. After that the smokiness got less and less and became more like roasty/toasty. I steeped up to 5 times western style the last for 8 minutes and the leaves were still not completely unfurled! I could tell I could’ve gotten more but I had to stop and I was not feeling well. A delicious intriguing tea

Hmm I enjoy walking, light hiking, the beach, nature, reading anything interesting, my ps3 (love rpgs), container gardening or at least trying to, and of course tea.

I brew everything western style with a spoon of honey if not then a teaspoon of rock sugar and resteep atleast 3 times.

My absolute favorite is Milk Oolong but also Dan Cong, Ali Shan, Ti Kuan Yin, Dong Ding, Siver Needle, Genmaicha, Jasmine Pearls. I love most teas but cannot drink most black teas because I get really bad headaches from them.

Always on the lookout for the perfect milk oolong, the pefect apple cider and pumpkin spice/pie that is not a tisane or BLACK TEA BASED
