Taiwan Tea CraftsI wanted some oolong today, so this sample that Ost sent me seemed like exactly the right thing.
This is a light and floral oolong, very pleasant. Yeah, that’s the right word for this, pleasant. It just leaves me feeling mellow and calm. A very nice tea this afternoon!
This one was pretty floral, but…even when I steeped it for over the steeping time it still wasn’t very strong. It was nice for a very light, floral tea. But I wouldn’t buy it when I finally order from Capital Teas Ltd.
Was nice for this afternoon though. Thank you, Mandy! :D
I always find it interesting when I see an oolong that’s not rolled into tight knobby balls. The leaves almost look like how the leaves of most tightly rolled knobby balls of oolong look after a short steep, still rolled and wrinkly looking, still knobby, but straightened up out of the ball shape. The leaves stayed rolled and wrinkly, through the first two steeps, and it wasn’t until the forth steep that they actually started to smooth out.
The aroma of this is like most green oolongs, floral, sort of vegetal, and a little roasty. This is a floral oolong, with a natural sweetness that again makes me think of peach blossoms, with a very light roasted taste that only sticks around for the first steep or two, and a buttery taste that is especially noticeable in the 3rd and 4th steeps.
Overall not a bad tea, but not phenomenal, a good tea for when you want to just drink something simple and floral.
