I managed to make it through the all the Taiwanese oolongs today! It was fun trying all of them and I was surprised by the amount of variation between them. This was one of the most unique of the bunch and I’m glad I ended the day with it. The leaves were small, brown, and somewhat flat; really quite unassuming. The smell though was richly fruity and quite the opposite of unassuming. It brewed up a dark amber color and also tasted extremely fruity, almost like a prune. It was a very sweet oolong and was one of my favorites of the bunch.

Flavors: Fruity, Sweet

Haha, I’m not surprised! As far as I know I’ve liked every tea I’ve tried from Butiki :)

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!
