Wu long best tea.
White tea doesn't have enough flavour and black tea like pu'er just tastes like cheap red wine.
Any japanese tea close to tie guan yin or shui xian?
I'm thinking about trying Gyokuro, but I have no idea what to expect.

Why so? does the tea needs some ions to form complexes to brew well or something? Or is it because it's a shitty process?
But yeah, brita stuff is enough for hard water anyway.

Tea threads are wonderful

Since I'm still drinking the same tea as the last few threads and my oolong order hasn't come in yet, I didn't see much point in taking another picture. But please enjoy this instead.

Tea/General. As usual, questions are welcome.

Lately I've been brewing Zairai sencha at higher temperatures. It's been popular lately to brew sencha at around 158-170 degrees F, but they've been coming out a little bit too soupy that way. Maybe 176 degrees is the perfect temperature for sencha.
