After easing back into brewing tea with a few basic mistakes like over-leafing and under-steeping, I’m intuitively making things work again with more presence

1st steep: 85C, one heaped teaspoon, 3 minutes. Cocoa-y warming comfort

2nd steep: 90C, 5 minutes. Slightly stronger cocoa-y warming comfort.

Had it with crappy microwave rice in a plastic cup as I was time poor this morning before an online workshop. Elevated the experience of eating instant rice. Made everything a bit better.

Bio

Australian tea drinker from Sydney.

I enjoy all kinds of tea except rooibos. Black and roasted oolongs are my true lovers while green tea makes me a little dizzy. Pu-erh I have yet to explore, despite being gifted several cakes. On the look-out for a great herbal tea and also getting the matcha madness.

Have yet to add everything to my Steepster cupboard, but would be interested in an Australian tea swap in the future!

The variety here is not as extensive as other places due to import regulations and the cost of shipping but I own and like stuff from Harney & Sons, Lupicia, T2, Teavivre, Butiki, Mariage Freres, Verdant, Yunnan Sourcing and Whispering Pines Tea Company.
