drank Mao Feng Green Tea by Whispering Pines Tea Company
417 tasting notes

I’m not liking this one quite as much as I did when I first tasted it. It’s pretty good, but it’s lacking the sweetness I like in a green tea, and the liquor seems to be a darker, more yellow color this time. Maybe it was the different steeping parameters? My palate might also be off, because I just burnt some white sage in my house…Not adjusting the rating yet.
ETA: Yup. As my nostrils recover from the sage smoke, this is tasting just as good as I remember it!

Flavors: Nuts, Peas

Preparation
170 °F / 76 °C 3 min, 0 sec 4 tsp 32 OZ / 946 ML

Bio

Tea means so many things to me, it is so deep and it is revealing new meaning to me all the time.

Tea is a mindfulness practice, and a doorway through which to explore different philosophies, cultures, and historical times. Tea is hospitality and a way of communion. Tea is an art, a ritual, and a tradition. Tea is a complement to the foods I eat (preferably vegan desserts) and is something I enjoy collecting and curating.

I love to swap, or even just send people samples, so if there’s anything in my cupboard you’d like to try, just send me a message!
