I was expecting to love this tea based on past reviews but in my experience I haven’t really loved an Oriental Beauty yet so it might be just me.

I over steeped this accidentally at work. Darn!

It was fairly strong with strong roasted notes. Probably would have been lighter if I hadn’t steeped it so long. I could pick out what was like autumn leaf, roasted notes & faint honey.

This tea just wasn’t very good for me. I’m not rating it because I over steeped but it still might not have been my cup of tea even if I got the brewing times right.

Flavors: Autumn Leaf Pile, Honey, Roasted

I have Butiki’s oriental beauty if you would like to test that hypothesis a bit more

Sure! Thanks. We were going to do a swap anyway.

Awesome! I am dealing with so many people on here it has begun to be a blur, which I love! I just realized you were with me/us on the YUNOMI deal. I have some very interesting teas to set aside for a swap :)

I haven’t sampled anything yet from the Yunomi order. Things have been crazy lately in my life. Looking forward to trying them out and doing a swap. I will PM you.

Green teas are my favourite teas but I also enjoy: white, some herbal,rooibos, raw pu’erh, light oolongs, a little bit of black , and a little bit of ripe pu’erh. I have moved away from artificial flavourings and there’s hardly anything left in my cabinet with artificial flavouring or colours. It is mostly straight teas or tea blends.
