Apricot Green

by Converted2Tea » Feb 23rd, '09, 18:43

Does it get any better than this? Holy Cow! I was really surprised at how delicious this tea was. I just received it today. This was my first expereince out of the grocery store tea bag world.

I weighed about 5.6g for 14oz of water. I steeped it at 3 minutes at about 170 and found it to be excellent on my first try! It was fabulous! Second steep was about the same (175+ and 4m steep) and found it to be equally as good.

By 170, that's a complete guess. I brought it to boil and took it off the flame for 3 to 4 minutes before pouring into my personaliTea (pre heated with 175 degree water).

I am just really excited to have another cup tomorrow. Ha!

Apricot green was one of my favorites when I first ventured into loose leaf teas too. It will actually get better than that, as you find new and better teas, but it definitely is an amazing experience when you taste your first really awesome tea.

I'm glad to hear that.
No, the apricot was not overbearing but that would be dependent on the person. I normally drink tea w/o adding anything so i was worried but as I mentioned....it was really delicious.

I can't wait to try other greens.
