I should take the time and not open all the tea bags at the same time... but well it is exciting to taste new teas. I try to to abide by my law (one tea per day), but I am too impatient... I must say that I am a beginner. I had some advices from a wise tea drunker. Then, I try do get my own ideas about the teas I drink. Si Ji Chun teas are my everyday teas. Most of the time the leaves are not complete. As a consequence the liquor gives quite some astringency and bitterness. The one proposed here by Stephane gets beautiful leaves and no astringency and no bitterness (a little says Stephane, but not as strong as I could saw or other ones). My brewing sequence (30/30/40/60) is probably not perfect, but this tea seems tolerant to my inexperience. I confirm that it is an "easy brewing" tea. You smells flowers not only in the aroma cup but also in the drinking one. It lasts during all the brewing sequence. And, something that is quite interesting, it is very affordable. Better quality for exactly the same price that you would pay for a poorer one. What else to ask for?Sebastiennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326672.post-14616825275304471262009-02-21T09:43:00.000+08:002009-02-21T09:43:00.000+08:00Thank you Marilyn,And I wish you good luck transfo...Thank you Marilyn,<BR/>And I wish you good luck transforming your 20 old quilt blocks into tea quilts!TeaMastershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02433657904904185875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326672.post-49140262177367739332009-02-20T23:47:00.000+08:002009-02-20T23:47:00.000+08:00Thanks for the explanation of Dong Pian Oolong tea...Thanks for the explanation of Dong Pian Oolong tea.
