This is my first Davids Tea ever!! And it’s all thanks to Virginia, who sent me samples of every DT she had. I mentioned that I’d never tried any DTs and about a week later, I have 41 NEW TEAS to try! How awesome is she?
Back to the tea, I think this is a very auspicious start to my relationship with Davids Tea. This tea is just lovely in every way. The leaves are gorgeous and unfurled very prettily when steeped. I felt like I was watching one of those time lapse nature videos of a plant growing. When sipped, a mellow oolong taste begins and then melts into an elegant, understated floral note. When the floral fades, you’re left with a soft pop of vanilla on the tongue. I think I’m in love. I must have this tea always.
Flavors: Orchids, Vanilla

Virginia, I can’t believe this was your first oolong! What a perfect first oolong. My first oolong was just some oolong at a chinese restaurant lol.
Marzipan, I will be trying ALL THE TEAS. Work is going to interfere considerably with all the tea tasting I’d like to do. I’m unreasonably (or completely reasonably?) excited. Also, I’m über jealous that you get to go to an actual David’s store!
whatshesaid, I can see why!
I’m really happy you like it :) this was my first oolong
Keep the reviews coming, I’m visiting a David’s in two weeks.
Oh this is one of my all time fave DT’s!
