  2. Number 2: Let Tea Brew Itself

    This episode we carry on from the previous stopping point : As we experiment with brewing new teas, how do we know if a flaw in the tea is coming from the tea or the brewing technique? So we took out some bowls to just soak the tea and let it brew itself!

  3. Number 3: The Intention Experiment

    In this episode we carry out an experiment comparing two brews that are exactly the same in all parameters except for the focus of our intention. We were absolutely floored by the results!

  5. Number 5: Structure of a Tea

    This week when I was doing my editing, I thought this may be one of the best episodes so far. We drank a 1970s Aged Baozhong, and it got Shiuwen deep on the subject of how teas are structured. And really, we dove into the overall fundamentals of tea drinking. It sounds weird at first, but tea drinking is something that you learn, study and practice. Also, I am trying to get our podcast to the approximate volume of other podcast recordings. So if you generally turn your sound way up for this show, maybe turn it back to regular volume. And let me know if you have any feedback in that department.
