Purchased at Wegmans. Tried it at the recommended steep time but wow, was it really fishy and malty. Drank it gongfu style and was much better. Probably wouldn’t purchase it again but if it was offered I would drink it.

I enjoy drinking this tea in the morning at work. It is good for 3-4 infusions if you slightly increase the steep time for each one. Don’t forget to rinse it for 10-20 seconds before the first infusion.

I did this tea as a celebration of the first episode of GTTV. I was so bummed how bad it was, I had the 2008 vintage, and it was bitter , very bitter, needed more aging, damp soil and mushroom notes on mid-back palate.
