I feel like vendors should provide steeping instructions if their teas are hard to brew. I hope you’re able to find parameters that work.
Harney is usually good about it suggesting basics around western and gong fu. It’s a forgiving tea, but I have really be careful to get anything substantial out of it. Too bad the leaves are so beautiful and nice smelling.
It’s always disappointing when a beautiful tea doesn’t steep as expected.
I’m relatively new to good tea, so I doubted myself when brewing this tea. However, my feeling on this tea is exactly as you describe. Too weak, has some flavors that could be interesting, but they are just too watered down to really keep my attention. I increased the amount of tea leaves, decreased the water and let it steep longer, and it still just never really got there for me. Glad I tried it, but it’s disappointing, especially for the price.
It is probably too late now, but I think Harney takes returns for a certain length of time if you don’t care for a tea.
Yeah, it’s been over a year. Good to know anyway!
