Much better the second time I brewed it. Still over-steeped a bit.

Not a very high quality tea. Next time I’ll try brewing it in smaller quantities and following my own timing for the tea, as it steeped to astringency in only a minute or two, using fewer leaves than directed.

A tasty, fruity rooibos. Almost like drinking hot juice.

Brewing now and wondering if it will be better than Swan Sisters… So far the answer is no. Though the price certainly is better.

Bio

“I love trading tea and trying new teas. My favourites are oolong (mainly Chinese) and pu’erh.
Will gladly talk all day about tea.”

The above was my bio when I joined five years ago, and I felt it needed to be updated. I still love pu’erh, though I have begun to take preference toward cooked, shou. Oolongs are certainly still a go-to tea for me, but I have expanded my horizons to begin including greens and blacks based upon the weather and how I am feeling.

Still more than glad to talk about tea – anytime, anywhere, anyplace.
Additionally, if fountain pens, books, music, or computers are on the discussion list…

My ratings, this “personal enjoyment scale” about which I talk, are just that – based on how much I enjoyed the tea. I might have enjoyed it immensely, yet do not keep it stocked for various reasons. On the flip side, I have a few teas that are “good” but not “great,” which I keep stocked for various reasons.
