Tea Theme (Not a sipdown yet): Tea with Honey

So the owner of Call Me Sweetea, Dani, finally closed shop for the foreseeable future. I am glad she is pursuing her future career aspirations but dang, I had just grown so attached to some of her blends: Believe, Cute, and Yum Cookies. I really dig the way she blended her teas with cocoa shells in black or herbal teas apparently. Anyways, I will probably sipping down what is in my stash this year and next year and morning my loss of them a little.

Preparation: Western
Tasting Note: The tea has some oolong, honey crystals and lavender in it and is pretty herbaceous. I think the honey crystals provide some extra floralness to the tea but it is not overly sweet. I am not particular fan of this type of oolong (I prefer more green or roasted oolongs, especially when they have floral or cinnamon or pastry notes). I haven’t done a second steep of the same leaves which could be better but I think it would lose most of the honey flavors.

Preparation
190 °F / 87 °C 1 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML
