I left the world of tea years ago and recently was indoctrinated by the amazing taste and health benefits of Oolong.

      But even when you steep Oolong to them, it’s still very soft. Sorry, I don’t know the terminology. But I like the flavour of Oolong, but most times want it to be stronger. Maybe I should give Jasmine a try.

        When you steep with boiling water in a thermos, it makes it quite strong because the water remains very hot the whole time.

        I use Jasmine because it takes some of the edge off the bitterness from oversteeping, but I could be wrong on that. After trying a few different types I found I liked Jasmine more.

        I’m not a pro at this, just a caffeine addict. Tea has better caffeine than coffee
