About This Video
This episode features two teas with similar flavors: Adagio's Foxtrot (boiling, 7 minute steep) and Felicitea's Sloth Tea (3 minutes, rumbling). This is Felciitea's first time on STeaP, so give Summer (the masterful tea blender behind the Felicitea name) a friendly welcome. You can also add both Summer and Ilya to your friends list over at our community.
