mj drank Nilgiri Frost Oolong by Butiki Teas

268 tasting notes

Thanks to Stacy from Butiki Tea for this sample! Oolongs are the only tea I always drink without sweetener and this one is particularly enjoyable. It’s very smooth with no astringency at all. It’s a little bit sweet, but mainly roasted and woodsy tasting. It tastes….cold…..maybe? I don’t know but I like it. The more it cools, the more I’m enjoying it. The only drawback is that it does leave my mouth a little dry.

Preparation

170 °F / 76 °C 4 min, 30 sec 1 tsp 8 OZ / 236 ML

Bio

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
