One month later.

ADVENT DAY 17

Yes, exactly one month later I have this tea again and this time from Advent Calendar. I have oversteeped it though, but it was somehow welcomed, because… I had slight headache and I really wanted bold and strong tea.

It was. All the mellow notes has disappeared. No marzipan, no nutty notes. But strong almond and malty cup. Slightly tannic and light astringent aftertaste.

Yes, it is intended to be drank with more careful steeping, but longer steeps aren’t turning it wrong.

Flavors: Almond, Astringent, Malt, Tannic

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 4 min, 0 sec 10 OZ / 300 ML

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Black teas are preferred, but I am drinking almost anything.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you.
