If you are someone other than MzPriss, TTF, or ost and I promised you tea samples, holla back. I am prepping samples now!
Method: 6 g, 6 0z, 195 degrees, rinse-10-10, sheng yixing
Aroma: smoked apricots
Flavor: This started to calm down at the 3-4 steeps. I didn’t finish the first two because they were pretty bitter, even at only 10 seconds. Now I am onto the 5-6 steeps, each were 15 seconds. The tea is a bit more brothy now. It still has a little kick at the end, but nothing drastic. I like this tea. It’s quite good. But I didn’t fall in love with this one like some of the other White2’s.

I tried the website on the cake www.taochaju.com and the domain name is for sale, nothing there.
I’m going to try this at a lower temp next time, like a little fairy suggested to me!!!
Lowering the temperature can salvage many a tea!
Hmmm….wonder who this fairy might be :-|
Allan I agree, but to lower astringency, this is what works best usually for me.
Maybe I will try 185 next time? Or do you guys think lower?
