There is more aroma in the pot than the cup. Possibly, but often there's more aroma in the emptied cup than in either. /Lew --- Lew Perin / http://www.panix.com/~perin/babelcarp.html

The pot can be full or empty. If you like the left over scent in a
cup, the pot is better. Jim On Apr 3, 7:57 am, Lewis Perin wrote: writes: There is more aroma in the pot than the cup. Possibly, but often there's more aroma in the emptied cup than in either. /Lew --- Lew Perin /

Possibly, but often there's more aroma in the emptied cup than in either. /Lew --- Lew Perin / Sort of related: I watched a cool documentary about tea and the one Chinese tea master made a comment that basically said the smell in the brewing vessel might not be very pleasant but the aroma of the brewed tea/cup should be. This means that the brewing was done correctly and the less pleasant aspects were left behind. I've thought about that at times and I can say that there are some brewed oolong leaves (greener, or highly fired greener oolongs) that smell terrible while the resultant tea is very beautiful and has none of the taste or aroma of the leaf itself. - Dominic
