From Lupicia

High mountain oolong from famous tea region Mt. Alee, Taiwan. Harvested from tea plantations located more than 1000m above sea level, this milky oolong has a bright aroma and aftertaste.

I was so careless that I used boiling water to brew this tea! Perhaps it’s not really wrong (boiling water is actually recommended by Lupicia), but I always find the taste of oolong is at its best when it is hot instead of scalding hot. I could barely taste the flavour and sweetness of this tea when it’s freshly brewed. I waited for my tea to cool a bit and that’s when the flavour came out. Very subtle sweetness and a tiny bit of milkiness. Overall a very gentle tea, and I think it’s the kind of tea made for cold brew. It’s ok but nothing too memorable. I have tasted better oolong from Alishan.

Lupicia recommends boiling water for all their tea which totally baffles me! I almost never follow their suggestions.

Yes it really puzzles me! They only recommend water of lower temperature for a few green teas. I tend not to follow their suggestions either :)
