I’m enjoying this one again in the afternoon. Today I lost track of time and let it steep a little too long—I’m not sure how much exactly, maybe 5 minutes? In any case, the long infusion produced an aroma and flavor that reminded me very strongly of petrichor. As I learned from Roswell Strange recently, petrichor is the scent after rain. It’s an interesting note, though I wouldn’t recommend long infusions of this tea to find it—the overall effect of this cup was not nearly as good as its usual profile.

If they made Petrichor perfume I’d dowse myself in the stuff :P
Haha, it would also make a great room fragrance! I’m not sure it’s quite as good in tea when you can both smell and taste the note, but as a scent it’s lovely :)
Oooh, petrichor room fragrance! Sign me up!
