Gongfu!
Sipping on a beautiful high mountain Lishan Oolong. It’s highly aromatic and beautifully sweet and floral; notes of white Spring flowers and lilacs with a silky mouthfeel and such buttery and creamy body notes. Some steeps even had hints of white peach, which came coupled with their own unique set of floral undertones. I’m finding this past week that as it gradually gets more Spring-like I’m definitely starting to really crave this type of greener and more floral oolong a lot lately!

Cha Gloriette is probably my favourite new (to me) tea company discovery, and so far everything I’ve sampled has been exceptional! I would have loved to buy one of everything they were sampling at the TO Tea Fest, but my wallet definitely disagreed with that idea. Thankfully I have amazing tea friends like Marika to help split the difference; thanks for sharing this sample from your festival haul!!
