A sip of warm tea:
Mouth full of flavor and yet-
Dryness on my tongue.
I meant to steep this for 3, but ended up around 5 minutes (again, work). The liquor is a medium gold and it doesn’t taste over-steeped. There is definitely a dry astringency, but I don’t think that is a negative. I struggle to describe the taste, but it is bright and pleasant.
I’m just starting out on my tea journey. There is so much to learn. O.o
First stop: try as many of the free teas around me as possible!
