August Sipdown Prompt – your biggest leaf tea
This is ONE of my biggest leaf teas but not THE biggest. The very biggest would probably be my Bao Zhong or a puerh but this is a new tea from Youngest and I wanted to go ahead and try it – many thanks, Youngest!
The package is confusing because mine is labeled “Plum Blossom Chinese Oolong” and under that “Taiwanese Tea”. If you look at their website, their package says “Plum Blossom Taiwanese Oolong” and “Taiwanese Tea” under that. But the online description says it is a Wuyi Rock Oolong…which puts us back in China.
It says it has award winning complexity but I didn’t get that using the steeping parameters I used today. I may need to gong fu this one. It does have the characteristic minerality of rock oolong, very much so, in fact. In addition to that just-lick-a-dusty-rock taste, there is a deeply browned bread toastiness.
It was good, but I think it has more to give when made differently. I will switch it up a bit and see if I can draw more out of it.
