Thank you beerandbeancurd for this sample! Initial rinse: Some type of Chinese veggie. Drywall. Creamed…. something. Initial taste at about 30 seconds reveals a silky mouth feel with cream of wheat and old wood in the basement flavors. the 1800 house notes really punch your face the longer you steep. Makes me seriously want to get back to my Ancestry searching but I promised myself I wouldn’t touch it till after I am done with my current tea dream. Oh and pine. Big pine notes too. Walking through a pine forest. Actually, I’m finding some new basement notes in there as well. That smell of crisp drywall and spackle. Each steep brings out more woodsy notes but thus far nothing much different. A bit more cream of wheat, no maple syrup or butter of course. Holy smokes. I just bit into a chunk of rotting wood. You know that big pieces of lumber they used to use to hold up earth before they started using concrete blocks and such. Wow.
“1800 house notes” haha I love it. Rotting wood is great too :)
