Second session of the night…I really liked this one…I had 5 grams remaining, so I brought forth my ‘special pot’ (made by Inge Nielsen) for black teas. It’s about 80-90 ml, so I figured it’d be the best piece to use for the remaining leaf.
The tea really started out strong—malt, cocoa, caramel, and sweet notes—however, after the sixth steep, the notes backed off, a lot. I tried raising the water to boiling point and over steeping the leaf, but it didn’t do much. I remember this brewing much stronger in the past, but I also used A LOT more leaf per water volume, then. Heh.
Flavors: Caramel, Cocoa, Malt, Sweet

I wanna know who’s the nerd behind Kuura with cake names like floating point, discrete, vector and rhizome.

Oh yeah, Kuura makes interesting wrappers with interesting names.
I do dig the names/wrappers. I laughed when I first saw their ‘PRESCRIPTION ONLY’raw puerh listed.
