Davids's organic breakfast - davids tea

From DT's blurb.
   "A blend of black teas from India, China and Sri Lanka, this is the kind of tea that puts you in a great mood, inspires harmonious relationships and makes you productive."

how lovely this is the first review of the lovely tea connoisseur gift set my auntie got me for christmas.

Method.

Ammount:  4.1g  in dayi gaiwan with boiling water.

1st steep: 30s
deep red amber color  with Lots and Lots of oil swirling on the surface.  Creamy lactose like sweetness with a slight hongcha dryness rather mild in flavor.  quite lovely actually.
2nd Steep: 1m
slightly earthy with light briskness.  the finish yeilds a slitght tangyness to it.

3rd Steep: 3m
flavors been washed away leaving just dryness in its wake.

leaves:  consist of mostly torn and rolled broad leaf with the ociasional stem. typical hongcha preperation.

thoughts.  delightfull first infusion perhaps good for two if agressive with steeping.  a nice well mannered hongcha.
