Day 15 of Sara’s Old Tea!

I did a quick wash, then steeped this one for 4 minutes for the first steep, 4.5 for the second. It opened up a good deal for the first, and even more for the second.

It tastes of raisins and honey and malt and happiness and kitten snuggles. I’m going to steep this until no more delicious flavor comes out of it. Mmm.

Flavors: Honey, Malt, Raisins

Preparation
200 °F / 93 °C 4 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Kitten snuggles!

Mastress Alita

I love this tea too!

Todd

I love it (and snuggles with cats of any age).
I’m surprised that no one else apparently got a raisin note from it.

This is a perfect description of Yunnan black teas!

I tend to get raisin more often in Assams/Indian teas than in Chinese ones, it seems.

My kitty was extra snuggly last night and this morning… then I woke up to find she’d had another bad constipation attack last night that she took out on my carpet. Sigh. (Still enjoyed the snuggles, though).

Todd

Aww, yay snuggles, boo poo.

I have enjoyed various teas most of my life, but have recently started exploring higher-end teas. Still, plain houjicha (loose-leaf or bagged) makes me feel like I’m in Japan.
