75

Another draining day, another nice tea I hope.
Gongfu, 5.5 grams / 125 ml / 75°C water.

I wasn’t paying much attention for every single steep, but I got probably expected flavour profile — buttery and grassy; mild and smooth. With longer steeps a bit more of astringency and seaweeds, but not bitterness. Maybe I have been expecting tropical fruits, but I don’t get those, so probably indeed it was a contaminationthat LuckyMe sample had.

I have offered second steep (roughly 15 seconds) to my mom and here are her words: “It’s fine, but nothing exceptional.” Yes, I agree with her word by word. Nevertheless, I have to say thank you to my friend derk, who kindly sent me this tea which I received in January.

Preparation
170 °F / 76 °C 4 OZ / 125 ML

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

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

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
