From Red Leaf Tea

Sechung is one of the most full flavored oolong tea varieties available, with a taste unlike any other that only gets better with each cup. This oolong tea from the Chinese province of Fujian in the mountainous southern region features a full curled up tea leaf that unfurls as it steeps. As the leaf opens up it releases more delicate flavor that has a taste that is pleasing to the palate with a bouquet that a brisk and lively taste that many tea drinkers enjoy in their cups. Sechung Oolong tea is not only a ideal brew to serve at gatherings but it also has a visual appeal that will please the eye.

This is not on the website anymore, so I am assuming RLT no longer carries it, so no blog post, just a random rambling while I sip it. The aroma is nice and toasty, like roasted buckwheat, grains, and sesame seeds. More of a nutty roasted tea than a sweet roasted tea, which I am ok with, because it is a roasted tea and it has to be terrible before I dislike sniffing it. There is also a faint underlying floral tone to it as well.

The wet leaves and liquid have more of a sweet toasted aroma, still very grainy. The first steep is pretty mild, I actually taste the salmon I just finished eating more so than the tea. But after many swallows to wash the fish out of my mouth I can taste slightly sweet grain and a touch of flowery. Pretty mild, but also pleasant.

Second steep is more grainy and roasted, it is an ok tea, not the best ever, but could be a good everyday roasted tea.

I did this one gongfu. Very nice. Roasty and flavorful.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it’s available anymore, or I’d probably have ordered it.
