Another from dexter as some know, jin jun mei’s are hit or miss for me. this one? it’s weird. there’s like a fruity taste running through a more malty sort of tea taste… i think this one is more miss for me but mostly because it’s a really strange taste for me today lol thanks dex!

I knew you weren’t a huge fan so I didn’t send you as many as I have. LOL I guess this wasn’t the right one.
haha
I was reading.. somewhere, on the discussion forum I think, that they can be tricky to brew? How do you both brew them? :)
Omgsrsly I have the best success with jinjunmei when I flash steep it 5-10s using boiling water and then pour it off. It seems counterintuitive for a tippy tea but I tend to get the best balance of flavours that way.
I’ll have to try with a basket and a tea cup. Thanks, yyz. :)
