This tea was not bad and not great either. It had strong notes of camphor but they were not overpowering or unpleasant. It also had strong sour notes as well. These persisted throughout all four steepings and were quite prevalent. If you like camphor and don’t mind sour notes this tea might be for you. The next time I brew this I will try 190 degree water and see if the sour notes are less strong. Perhaps the tea will lose the sour notes as it ages.

I brewed this four times in a 207 ml Taiwan Clay Teapot with boiling water and 8g leaf. I steeped it for 10 sec, 5 sec, 10 sec, and 15 sec.
