I like this tea name. My cinnabar dragon (that I picked up in SF Chinatown around that New Year) is sitting next to my Western tea mug.

Tried a short step with Western equipment. Every time I make something like it makes me want a gaiwan even more. (The one I like even has dragons.)

Scent (brewed)- dried fruit, mushrooms
Flavour- baked bread, fruit, sweet

For my attempt at a 30 second step, I think it was more like a minute. Still turned out well. Shorter seems to be better for my future shou brewing.

Flavors: Bread, Dried Fruit, Mushrooms

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 45 sec

Tea dragons can be found in Chinatown. Do you name the yixing pots? (I guess they can be small and cute.)
