For a moment when I was mildly stressed about having to interact with too many people this week (I’m an AuDHD clinical psychotherapist also studying hypnotherapy), the jasmine seemed to lift some tension out of my head and bring a bit more lightness to my energy field.

Nice to enjoy jasmine with a black tea base, as green tea can make me feel dizzy. Thought that golden buds would be an odd pairing with jasmine, but the cocoa note is very subtle and doesn’t clash.

1st steep: 90C, 1 heaped teaspoon, 4 minutes

2nd steep: 95C, 5-7 minutes. Stronger this steep, reminded me of floral-y Peruvian chocolate.

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.
