17 Tasting Notes
Wow I just finished ..my tour of, oolong tea by Fong Mong and this last one was my favorite. It doesn’t have an overbearing floral taste like the jasmin oolong but it has a delicate sweetness to it.. The tea is great… It has an invigorating smell and a strong roasted flavor. with out all the rhetoric and fancy wording. This tea rocks my socks off
My third oolong tea for the day.. And so far it is my favorite. It has the smooth taste of an oolong but a fruity taste after words. The tea has a mellow mild taste but it still packs a wallop. I do enjoy this blend and it has officially made me a fan of oolong. The subtleness of green tea but with the flavor of herbal. In short it is amazing
The first tea taiwon had an excellent appearance. opening the bag the smell instantly pulls you in to its almost relaxing aura. the tea is one of my first experiences with an oolong so I am extra exited to try this lovely sample. I waited patiently for around five minutes for this lovely tea to steep. To say that the color of the tea was beautiful is an understatement. The tea when served is a natural mellow yellow. the smell alone is enough to inspire keanu reeves to say woaaaaaaaaaaaah. however the most important part the taste it does not let down. The sweet tea has an humble light taste that is yet delicate and smooth. It is like walking across a silk pillow or taking a stroll through a city on a easy sunday morning. The flavors.have.a slight earthy tone but I am not sure what else however,.this tea has made me fall in love with oolong.
Wow. This was the first thing I said when I took my first sip of the tea. I Have never had a yellow tea before so this one was especially amazing. So back to the tasting. This tea had an delectable aroma. The Tea first had an earthy smell too it. Secondly the tea had a delectable taste. IT has a smooth earthy flavor that reminded me of warm vanilla… The tea barely needed any sweetener and had a natural sweetness to it. IF there is one tea’ I recommend for anybody going to Tea’s Me.
Preparation
So this is probably one of my favorite teas from TEavana. It is just amazing. Starting from the look it is an excellent blend of red to green leaves. THe aroma is powerful it hits you right square in the nose almost if going toe to toe with Anderson Silva. Next the look when pouring it into a cup. It gives off an alluring(No pun intended) Red color. It is almost sexy to watch the tea pour from the pot into the cup. Thirdly the taste. It is divine. The Tea is good by itself.. but it makes Other Teas taste wonderful too. I blended this with the god awful Pear Luna.. and it actually made the tea better. I am not sure if it was because it masked the flavor or if the tea just naturally brings out the better flavor of things. IT is really sweet, and tasty. I do recommend trying this tea out.
This tea came highly recommended to me by the sales people of teavana. They said that this tea is great because of the multiple infusion that it produces. Now this is my first white tea. So I am extra careful. I put about two teaspoons in my 16 oz pot and I prepare myself for greatness.. Meh. Its not that great. It has a strange taste I like at first but it grows to a bitter after taste. The second infusion is a bit better but its still ugh. However not wanting this tea to go to waste I blended it with a pinapple kon pop that I had… It gave it a subtle flavor boost. By itself the tea is gross but burned its pretty good … Well its pretty meh.
