Steep Information:
Amount: 4 tsp
Additives: none
Water: 2 Zarafina cups
Tool: Zarafina Green-Loose-Medium
Served: Hot
Tasting Notes:
Dry Leaf Smell: floral, honeysuckle (weird I expected Jasmine)
Steeped Tea Smell: Jasmine, honeysuckle, floral
Flavor: liquid flowers with a bit of green tea
Body: Medium
Aftertaste: tingly tongue, I can feel floral perfume filling my mouth
Liquor: light apple juice yellow, translucent yellow-green-orange
I should have used 2 tsp and not 4, I have no idea what I was thinking.
Post-Steep Additives: honey
more green tea, less floral, enjoy it much better this way
Resteep: Zarafina Green-Loose-Medium
I should have done mild? Bleh too bitter to drink, tossed it, very vegetal, very floral, but also very bitter
Rating: 1/3 I fully expect this to become a 2/3 when I try again with the proper amount of pearls

Soccermom: No need to apologize… not every tea is for every body! That’s why there are so many teas out there from which to choose! And hey… that means more jasmine for me! LOL
