Despite waking up this morning feeling tired, I didn’t want a tea with much bite so I chose the mellower Napal. I don’t think I used enough tea leaf so both steeps were on the weak side. I kept getting floral today and thinking violets with a honeyed sweetness.
I had a yucky headache last night which is all got today but I think is the cause of the continuing tiredness into midday. I might have some Yunnan after lunch for a bit more of a caffeine punch. Massive backlogging of teas from the past week will be coming later as well.
2nd steep: 5 min, 200° F, more than a pinch of fresh leaf.

Thanks, Stephanie!
Tea Bird ~ All the Rounds I have were yummy! Have you tried any A&D? I have all of them but Series 3.
I bought series 2, and got some of 3 in a swap (Caravan), but series 4 was long gone by the time I learned of it. I eagerly await 5 ;)
Headaches suck. I hope you feel better soon!
Violets! Mmmmmm :)
That sounds delicious, and makes me sorry I missed Round 1!
Thanks, Stephanie!

I know. I keep checking back, in case it’s a another small number of sets series. I don’t want to miss it.
