蒸 - Get Musty
To Get Musty tea, villagers once placed flowers on a stove top with a fishing spear resting nearby, letting water rise in steam until only one fragrant, damp scent lingered. In old Japan, steaming herbs like this was a common way to preserve and soften them, though the room itself always grew musty.
