Okay. I thought I’d brew this up after my session with the lightly roasted version earlier today and try to put some words around how it misses the mark that the light roast hits so well (for me).
The wispy green/jade/vegetal/grassy notes seem to tamp out the floral/butter/cream roundedness that the light-roasted version blossoms into so beautifully. Every steep sort of tastes muted and watery, like an anticipatory rinse that never quite arrives at Second Steep Magic™. I am tempted to experiment with wok-kissing this at home… those notes are in there, I’m sure of it, but need the lid taken off.
Like petting a cat through a duvet.
Flavors: Grass, Green, Vegetal, Watery
I wonder if overleafing might help, too.
I know I tried that at least once, but don’t remember it making too much difference.
“Like petting a cat through a duvet.” Love that imagery XD
