I was kind of disappointed with my first session of this tea. The first couple steeps were promising, as they gave a beautiful pale liquor with light grassy flavors, hinting at fruit on the finish. Unfortunately, that fruit flavor remained only in whispers, like it was buried and trying to get out. I’ll have to try something different on my next session to see if I can get more of the fruitiness to come out of the tea. Possibly ramp the steeping times up more quickly, as I kept them down around 10-15 sec. the first 5 or so infusions.

Bio

A bit about myself: 22 years old, college grad (Double major in Anthropology and History). I plan to make a career of archaeology and hopefully travel (much of) the world in my days.

I enjoy many things aside from tea, including gaming, mixing cocktails, reading, watching anime, and painting miniatures.

My favorite type of tea is sheng puerh. Particularly younger stuff, if only because I haven’t gotten the chance to taste much of anything aged. I also really like oolong (Taiwanese, Wuyi, Dancong, etc.) and Japanese Green Teas. I do also enjoy most other kinds of tea, but they aren’t what I normally buy. I’m not a huge fan of shou puerh, black tea, or flavored blends, with few exceptions.

I really like interacting with the tea community, so if you ever want to talk or swap teas or anything, feel free to shoot me a message or something. Follow me and I’ll follow you back. Probably ;)
