Day 5 of my Steepster homemade advent calendar from Kelmishka and another new-to-me tea company. I love jasmine tea, so I’m really happy that this was in the calendar! It’s a nice jasmine too – light and floral and delicately sweet, without tasting at all cloying or artificial or perfumey. I did the first steep at 180f for three minutes and the second at 180f for seven (I lost track of time a little bit, unfortunately, but even with the longer steep it didn’t get dry or bitter). I’m thinking I might still be able to tease out a third steep with a higher temp/long brew time. This would probably make a delicious cold brew too.
Flavors: Jasmine, Sweet
