Just killed my bag of this that I bought quite a while ago from YS as my first Wuyi oolong. I’m able to appreciate it a little bit more than when I first tasted it. Nice roasty notes, especially in the early steeps. A moderately thick body. Sweet mineral, nutty (almond?), and perhaps vanilla notes. It gets a little bit drying mid-way through the session but not enough to be unpleasant. If pushed too hard, it can get a bit sour tasting, maybe due to the roast.

Flavors: Almond, Mineral, Nutty, Roasted, Sweet, Vanilla

Bio

A bit about myself: 22 years old, college grad (Double major in Anthropology and History). I plan to make a career of archaeology and hopefully travel (much of) the world in my days.

I enjoy many things aside from tea, including gaming, mixing cocktails, reading, watching anime, and painting miniatures.

My favorite type of tea is sheng puerh. Particularly younger stuff, if only because I haven’t gotten the chance to taste much of anything aged. I also really like oolong (Taiwanese, Wuyi, Dancong, etc.) and Japanese Green Teas. I do also enjoy most other kinds of tea, but they aren’t what I normally buy. I’m not a huge fan of shou puerh, black tea, or flavored blends, with few exceptions.

I really like interacting with the tea community, so if you ever want to talk or swap teas or anything, feel free to shoot me a message or something. Follow me and I’ll follow you back. Probably ;)
