Bitter Formosa oolong
Posted: Wed Oct 18, 2023 9:29 am
Hi
Overall new to drinking quality tea the Gongfu way. Now I enjoyed several sessions at home and but today I drank a Formosa oolong and it was quitte bitter.. just like you would brew with a regular teabag.. I must say this oolong I bought in a small gift store and maybe the quality isn’t that good..
Tried to vary with temperature and brew times but overall just bitterness and harsh aftertaste.
What could this be?
