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

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
