A sipdown! (M: 6 Y: 64) prompt: April 22 – Earth Day: drink an earthy tasting tea

Two days late! Also it fits better prompt: “A tea with a long name”

But who cares? Sipdown is a sipdown!

Well, this one from derk isn’t much earthy. Thanks anyway. Whopsy daisy. It’s rather mineral. Astringent and herbaceous. Musty mint.

Longer steeps are even more herbaceous — musty mint notes. Sadly, not so earthy as I have wished for to fill the prompt. Fine for mindless drinking though. I had better shengs.

Were 6 grams for my 125 ml gaiwan too much? Who knows…

Preparation
6 g 4 OZ / 125 ML

Bio

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Black teas are preferred, but I am drinking almost anything.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Working in logistics.

Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you.
