Drinking this for the first time! The scent of the unsteeped leaves is like candy. This is gonna be good…
First steep – I let my water cool a bit longer than I would normally, and I also steeped for a shorter amount of time (I was impatient). This is nice! I see what they mean when they say it has a milky/creamy mouth feel. It’s weird to describe water that way,
Novel and lovely, not sure I’m in love with it, though. Not enough to buy a tin when I could buy a cheaper oolong, for instance.
2nd Steep – hotter water this time. Liked it better on the first steep, but this is still nice. The mouthfeel continues to be smooth, and I do taste creamy notes. So odd to be describing straight tea as tasting like cream and feeling creamy.
