Unfortunate sipdown! I really enjoyed this tea. May need to order it at some point with Huang Shan Mao Feng, another one I really like. I actually just bumped the rating up on this one a little bit because it came out even better than last time. Tangy, sweet and savory both depending on whether this is your first sip or your last. It is very flavorful- almost fruty at first- and it was straight-up refreshing this morning. Also, these airy, fluffy, deeply colored leaves are so attractive. They remind me some of how cute WP’s Golden Snail leaves are.

After all the black/pu-erh steeping yesterday, I think I had way too much caffeine. Today I wanted something just like this with low caffeine. So thank you, Bi Luo Chun for helping me out. I re-steeped this one 3 times and it held up fine btw. And now I am going to go knead my made-from-scratch bread dough so I can bake a few loaves before the start of the week. There is nothing like fresh homemade bread and a good cup of tea. Happy Sunday!

This one isn’t updating with the edit, but I used a heaping 1.5tsp (probably closer to 1.75tsp) per 8oz bottled spring water.

Oh home made bread! It’s a favourite thing of mine to eat, but I haven’t baked much bread myself and the few loaves I’ve done have always been more dense than I planned.
