I’m finding a lot of Mountain Stream Teas to be misses for me. The last 3-4 I brewed all tasted about the same- slightly vegetal, slightly bitter, but overall boring and similar. I’ve found they’re generally very weak, even using 10g of tea and just a few ounces of water. Not sure I would make a repeat purchase anytime soon.

That’s been my experience with Mountain Stream Teas too. I feel kinda bad for bashing them because I really admire the owner’s passion, honesty, and support for sustainable tea farming but many of the teas just haven’t been up to par. I did like their baozhong and some of their flavored oolongs though.

I feel bad swell. I always like supporting small businesses (especially ones that are passionate about their products), but it seems like they need to find different farms to source from.
