I was so intrigued by the aroma and taste of this one yesterday that I decided to give it another try today. I switched up my brewing parameters a bit this time around to do more, shorter infusions. The steeping leaves, again, smell very much of sweet, toasty nuts. The first steep is very light in color and flavor, it has a hint of creamy nuttiness with a very smooth texture that coats the mouth and throat.
The second steep is slightly more vegetal but still quite light in flavor, and the third steep is bringing out the slightest bit of bitterness, the nuttiness mellowing out with each steep. I can tell if I keep going it’ll just get more bitter while the other flavors will continue to diminish, so I’ll call it done for now. Was a good session!
Flavors: Creamy, Nutty, Vegetal
