today i have the w2t poundcake brewed, thanks to mrmopar who sent this and others.
i brewed this western style. the liquor comes out a light yellowish gold, i like the look of it.
it tastes sweet with a slight maple syrup note. it has some vegetal taste too, with some peach. i get a nice rich mouthfeel- some menthol on the tip of the tongue. im really happy with this one.. could be a potential daily drinker, who knows.
its a quite sunday and this poundcake stuff is just the thing to drink while i read through mtg pdf guides. ive always had magic cards, but never bothered to play right, and since i havnt grown out of it, id like to revisit the game.
i just poured a second cup from my pot and i think there is more astringency somehow.. i ve noticed these slight changes in the past, and i assure you the basket is not in it ( although i have been known to forget it in there.) how does this make sense? anyways this is a nice tea. maybe ill set up the gongfu another day for a more in depth review.
