Very positive session. Lowering to 90°C preserved the profile and made handling and cooling more comfortable. Effective water volume was approximately 80–90 ml.
Wet aroma: Strong fragrance
Taste: Strong sweetness and raisin/dried-fruit flavor; flavor intensified by steep 3; steep 4 was unchanged at 90°C
Mouthfeel: Thick and very velvety by steep 3

Casual qualitative session with a champion tea brewer. Described as amazing and became a personal benchmark and favorite; no formal steep record or rating was captured.
