Yeah, one of my favorite greens. I find the white bi lou chun to be a bit tough to brew right. have to go really cool. it turns astringant/bitter very easily.
I know what you mean, one day it can be too strong and the next day it’s mellow. I might have a go at brewing the Chinese way according to Teavivre. It’s towards the bottom of the page, seen similar instructions for brewing Long Jing too. Must try it, maybe tomorrow.

I am so sad that I have never experienced a tea buzz or a tea high. I suspect it has to do with the fact that I don’t react to caffeine, but it still makes me sad. You are lucky.
Starfleet, the caffeine conveys the l-theanine to the brain but doesn’t cause the tea high. You never know what tea will effect you. Fresher, pure tea is a better bet and many people say white, some green and oolong tea’s give a buzz ( or sense of well-being). For me, it’s a certain white tea and puerh. Most puerhs make me feel good and all fresh sourced tea’s.
Ah, thanks, that was informative! I guess I’ll have to keep trying then.
The only tea that makes me tea drunk/high are pungent greens. If I steep it a little stronger than recommended and drink two pots in quick succession it makes me feel very relaxed and happy and my eyes feel warm and tired. Also get a little light headed sometimes. Keep trying Starfevre you will never know when it may work for you. :)
Strong sheng does it for me. :)
