We've got a lot of clouds in Los Angeles right now and overnight there was even a brief thunder shower.... so even though it's not very cold, in my office it feels just right for some hot tea. Pulled out some Wuyi Huang Guan Yin from Jing Tea, which appears to have done just fine with a long stay in my tea test before being brought out because I bought it in 2020.

The flavor is warm, rich, earthy, and has that mineral note that feels so right on a gray day.
