Tried it again today, this time western with classic ball strainer.

Steep was 4 minutes long and honestly it was dismal. It wasn’t that flavourful at all, it was like understeeped. It was very light and only things I have noticed was kind of baked bread notes & malty. Sad about this session, because I still remember the goodness of gongfu brewing a month ago. Downrating, from 92 to 85.

I just wonder… are there teas which are prefered brewing in only one method?

Flavors: Bread, Malt

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 4 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 10 OZ / 300 ML

I think there are. I had a black tea from Teavivre that was magnificent gong fu and pretty boring Western.
