The resinous smell hits you the second you open the bag, way richer than the powdery stuff I've bought before. I've been steeping it most mornings for a couple weeks and the energy feels steady rather than jittery.

I was skeptical about a dried herb giving me "grounded energy" but two weeks in, the afternoon slump I used to fight with a third coffee is just... gone. I simmer a small spoonful for about ten minutes and the effect builds slowly rather than hitting all at once.

The resinous, almost piney taste took a couple cups to get used to, but now it's my go-to for that dense, grounded focus during long work afternoons. One small scoop steeped for about ten minutes does the trick.
