Morning Cup.
Strange tea – good but interesting. Steep instructions are nothing like other black teas I have encountered – 185 to 190 for 3 mins. Okay not FAR off but unexpected early in the morning! Yeah I managed to get up early today.
So what do I do? I do it the way I do most black teas.
At first I thought to myself “ah ha I was right” as the brew was lovely – then after it began to cool it became bitter. Well so I was wrong. I will re-steep going by the instructions.
Regardless – from what I tasted prior to the bitter coming through it was very nice!
I will rate and add more notes once I steep it correctly.
This is You :-D

About Me:
Most of my reviews, although not all, will be quite favorable of the tea. This is not because all tea is excellent, but more so because I generally will not waste my time on an inferior tea. If I do not care for a tea I won’t continue to drink it let alone spend time reviewing it. If you see a review by me you basically know it is a quality tea. Granted it may not suit your specific taste buds, we all like different things, but as for a tea on the whole it is a good one, from a good company.
I am a spiritual advisor by profession.
I have two “young adult” children.
Four cats and three dogs.
Some of my hobbies include gardening, essential oil therapy, natural perfumery with essential oils, and cooking.
I look for complexity overall in any tea, dimensions to the flavors.
I believe tea should evoke a feeling, thought, emotion, or attitude.
I enjoy most all oolongs, blacks, whites, and greens.
I always love to try a good yellow tea.
I favor unadulterated teas but I do have my longings for a good flavored tea now and then so I don’t rule them out by any means!
I enjoy green rooibos don not like red rooibos.

It’s like a darjeeling tea – they can certainly get bitter and gnarly if the water temp is too hot.
Ah I will have to watch parameters!
