5.3/130 pot. boiling after rinse in gaiwan. light YQH house smell, but also light smoke and fruit. Has been set aside and aired out further.
1st: mushroomy, some bitter and very slight warmth. some sweetness builds in back of mouth, and it’s almost dried cherry-like. maybe some cough drop/apricot notes, but I also just ate my gummy vites earlier.
2nd was darker and almost malty, with lighter aftertaste. quickly falls from here to a more woody and thin tea. sometimes sharp w/ fine astringency on tongue. after 6th, moved to a mug where it gave up. essentially, mushroom note is pretty integrated throughout. not the worst YQH i’ve had, but hardly my favorite.
This is You :-D

Just a chronicle of a stranger’s tea journey. Ratios have trended downward over time as my body can no longer tolerate greener teas. I have no idea what I was doing when I was younger, and re-reading my old notes, it is easy to see how I gave myself stomach problems. Regrettable, but take this as a warning.
