I finally joined the covid club, while I didn’t lose taste and smell, my current tea perception is surely affected by it.
In any case, it is fun to check up on this tea’s progression. It seems to have a more rustic character now. The aroma reminds me of forest floor and beeswax, while the taste is a mix of green wood, citrus fruits, honey, root vegetables (beetroot, celery), with some further hints of chickpeas, vanilla, camphor, cumin and apricot in final few infusions.
The tea is somewhat astringent and numbing, but it can be easily pushed to extend the session to about 14 infusions.
Flavors: Apricot, Astringent, Barnyard, Beans, Beeswax, Beetroot, Camphor, Celery, Citrus, Cumin, Dry Grass, Forest Floor, Green Wood, Honey, Roots, Vanilla
I wish you fast recovery!
I hope you feel better soon! I’m glad your senses of taste and smell weren’t affected.
Thanks! It’s getting better with each day :)
Oh no! Sorry to hear that, and hope you recover quickly. Thankful you can taste your tea!
