I did something wrong, the tea smells fabulous, but is weak and a bit bitter. I think I need more leaf, and less time?

On the other hand both the tea and leaf smell so fabulous I am happy to just sit here and sniff….

I love caffeine! I prefer tea to coffee. I prefer my flavors to be in your face, not subtle.
