Spring 2024: Dry leaves are beautiful white and lighter green fuzzy little twists, smelling grassy but also bread-like. After a lighter one-minute steep, I get flavors of sugar snap peas, celery, and nuts, with a good amount of sweetness. A little bit of salty butter, too. Some dandelion grassy florals in the aftertaste. The scent in the cup is of peas, and the scent of the wet leaves has a surprising spiciness to it. Brewing it up longer with a second steep of two minutes, you get more of the same.
With a longer first steep of 2 minutes, you can bring out more of the strong vegetal notes. I like it either way, depending on my mood.
Getting some nice artichoke notes from this tea as well.
