Oversteeping can bring out unwanted bitter notes.

Fun fact: we often confuse astringency with bitterness. Bitterness lingers in your mouth after drinking, while astringency fades quickly.

Pay attention next time you sip green tea!

3/3

How is it possible for the tea tree to produce so many subtle flavors and aromas. The oolong we are having today has the aroma of a wild honey, sweet but also floral, but the taste has a hint of hot rocks a mineral taste, and of course the bitter and lightly woody taste of the tea itself.

This isn't an herbal tea. HOW does this happen?

Scones: The ultimate food controversy. ☕🍓

I used to be Team Devon (Cream First)—until yesterday, when I tried Cornish style (Jam First). Turns out, Cornish style is better because you actually get to taste the fruity tartness longer. Who knew?

Are you #TeamDevon (Cream First) or #TeamCornwall (Jam First)? Or just here for the tea? ☕
