From Dark Matter, Labeled 2015 Go Ji Shan Ben Se Wu Yunnan Sourcing. I’m pretty sure that is this tea?
Notes to self:
- First steep fruity, a tiny bit of smoke. Some sourness, flash
- Smells smokier on the second steep, still only a little bit of smoke and earth, candy like fruitiness, like a Jolly Rancher 5sec
- Smoke is predominant flavor, also fresh wood. Fruit gone :-( 10 sec
- same as last 10 sec
- same as above but more earth 5 sec
- earth, slight sour, earth, old fruit with no sweetness, still tasty
- same as above
Flavor mostly gone after this
Worth buying and drinking again
Thick body throughout 2.5g 40ml? 110ml Giawan a little less than half full. Slightly more than just enough to cover the leaves 195F on average. try to do more flash steeps next time
