Now for the twice charcoal-roasted high mountain oolong. This oolong is more in the style of what @npub1u35v...v9u0 likes, but more to my taste than the kind he drinks. It’s very very toasted (in a way that makes me intimidated to try the five times-roasted one also in the sampler 😅), but underneath it is the most interesting bright fruitiness. This is a tea that I think would pair well with melon and prosciutto. I’m thinking this and the other charcoal-roasted tea probably REQUIRE gongfu brewing to actually taste right. I’m usually loath to do it that way because even though it’s traditional, it feels like I’m both wasting tea and making it less strong than I like. In this case I’m pretty sure removing the first steep’s flavor components and making it less strong will actually bring its true flavors forward, and I’m interested to see what that’s like. Because of this, I think I won’t brew the other charcoal tea “Grandpa style” Also… the Alishan milk oolong is so good iced! It brings out the earthiness and barest hint of smokiness to its “foresty” character, and is so refreshing! And look at how green its color is!! #teachain #Taiwan #茶 #功夫茶 #台湾 #grownostr View quoted note →

@Paul got me a wonderful Mother’s Day gift! This sampler of oolongs, which are my favorite kind of tea, is really exciting. My mom was a big fan of milk oolong, so I decided to make my first cup from the Alishan milk oolong in honor of her. I was slightly wary because milk oolongs are actually one kind I have tended not to like. I’ve only ever had two, but thought both had a weird aftertaste. This one has no weird aftertaste, but is a pure delight! I would say it’s “foresty” with lots of bright fresh herby notes and a little mild earthiness. I pretty much always drink fine teas “grandpa style” (throwing all the leaves in the cup and leaving them there) which I’m sure gives the real tea fans palpitations, but I may try to save a little of each of these particular teas to do in a real gongfu way as their makers intended. Thank you, my love! 🥰 Challenge mode: spot the baby foot #mothersday #teachain #Taiwan #母亲节 #茶 #台湾 #grownostr

Ginger scallion pork sausages roasted with spring onions, daikon, and shiitakes, served with sanuki udon in a butter miso sriracha vinegar sauce Guanyin oolong tea and nigori sake Roasting shiitakes with sausages was definitely something to repeat 😁the daikon were pretty great, too, but took a little long to brown up #cooking #lunchchain #teachain #grownostr

@elsat almost every single one of these notifications refers to a muted note. Is there a way to not have this sort of thing show up in notifications?
