This is a black tea from white2tea.

Brewing setup: 3g grandpa style with boiling water

This is a delicious tea that is very forgiving and perfect for grandpa style or thermos brewing. It’s very sweet, with no bitterness or astringency. The name of the tea may be influencing me here, but it really does taste like strawberry jam mixed with butter, just missing the toast. Also quite an affordable tea too at just $6.50/50g.

Black tea in a glass next to a bag labeled “butterjam red, white2tea, 50g”

Oh, I just bought this! I haven't tried it yet. One of the selling points for me is grandpa style, because it's such a convenient method of consuming tea at work.

    I've just been doing fresh stinging nettle, a lot shoved in a mason jar, maybe with some white pine or spruce shoots.

    That sounds yummy. I haven’t done nettle tea, but I like a good pine or fir shoot tea. So fresh and full of vitamin C. I do like putting stinging nettles on a pizza or roasted with some chicken though. Always cool to find a fellow forager!
