Alright, I’m frustrated. I have become bad at making this tea! It tasted really good the first bunch of times I made it, then I made it taste crappy (can we say crappy on Steepster?) a few times, and then I managed to make it pretty decent but it did not reach the heights of amazingness that I got used to. And now I’m afraid of it. Sigh. I’ll just have to keep experimenting… I’m hoping that maybe it had something to do with the tannin buildup in my teapot or something.

oh no! this one IS delicious! i hope you figure out what went wrong
I know! That’s why I’m not touching the rating – I’m aware of the fact that this is entirely my own doing and not this lovely tea’s fault….
maaaybe try making it in a mug or something? :(
I’ve worked it out! I think… This tea usually has vanilla bits in it, right? I think I was overly greedy with them and used them all up, so now I’m left with about 1/5 of the tea with no vanilla bits. And that also explains why the tea tastes much better now that I’ve cleaned my teapot but not as amazing as it used to. Ok, so, basically, I need to buy a new round of this tea and be more moderate in my vanilla-chasing. Phew.
hahahahaha
