Did 8 steeps, 15 seconds for the first steep and added 5 seconds to each steep.

Before rinse

The smell of the dry leaves is just jasmine flowers. Nothing more, nothing less.

After rinse

After the rinse, the smell was quite something! Light jasmine notes, followed by warm honey and even a light grassy finish.

Steeping

1st steep: While drinking the first cup, I got jasmine flowers in combination with the flavour of vegetal green leaves. Starts with a heavy green taste followed by light jasmine notes.

2nd steep: only light green notes at the start followed by light jasmine flowers. No heavy aftertaste; only a few notes of green leaves.

3rd steep: I immediately got heavy green notes again at the start. This particular flavour stays throughout the whole steep but you also get some light jasmine notes. The jasmine flowers do not stay long so this steep is mainly green flavours. During this steep, the leaves start to become more astringent so I immediately get a dry mouth after finishing my cup.

4th steep: I got a lot less green notes at the start while getting more jasmine flavour. I would describe it as a medium jasmine flavour, a slight jasmine aftertaste and even some slight floral notes throughout this steep. During this steep, I also got a cooling sensation on my tongue.

5th steep: some light green notes with a heavy jasmine flavour followed by a really astringent and green finish.

6th steep: during this steep, I got jasmine flowers from the start and this diminished gradually. Nothing heavy just light and pleasant flavours.

7th steep: from the start, I immediately got a cooling sensation on the tongue. I got light jasmine notes from the start that gradually diminish. The big difference with steep 6 is that I got hit by a really green aftertaste.

8th steep: this is definitely the last steep. Only a light jasmine flavour. Nothing major at the start and only a light jasmine flavour in the middle, which dies out slowly.

I’m not sure if I want to buy this tea again. It’s possible that I overbrewed it but I didn’t really like the tea this time. I’m planning on doing another tasting in a few months.

3gr in 300ml of water at 80 degrees c. Steeped for 2mins and then two further steeps +30 seconds each steep.

1st steep.

Yellow tea with a green tint.
Aroma of jasmine flowers, very floral with light green leaf.
Taste is sweet, floral and light green leaf with very little astringency. Nicely balanced in its flavours.

2nd steep.

More green in the colour this time.
Aroma is not as strong on the jasmine front, more green leaf.
Taste is more of a warm floral taste, some hints of licorice and spice. More green forward this time.

3rd steep.
Back to being more yellow again.
Aroma is less floral again.
Taste is light floral notes, green with some vegetal notes. A bit more diluted than the previous steeps.

Overall good.
