From Trident Booksellers and Cafe Boulder Colorado

Oriental Beauty, or Baihou, is an unroasted but heavily oxidized oolong tea. It is also distinct in that is bug-bitten; insects are allowed and encouraged to nibble on the leaves. This releases more of the plant’s terpenes, and produces a distinctly sweet and aromatic brew high in GABA.

Origin – Miaoli County, Taiwan

Harvest – 2019

Tastes Like – Lilacs, Honeysuckles, Cinnamon

Got this last year for autumn and summer. I wanted to compare it to the three others I got and overspent my money on. The emphasis on the florals intrigued me on it. I either love Oriental Beauties for their autumn feel, or they can be too drying.

This is not a drying one, but I think I will have to pay attention more in a proper gong fu session instead of a backlog. It’s flavor is heathered and smooth, and not as drying as some others, but not as forward with its flavor. It is forward in the aroma, though. I like it, but I need to leave another cliff hanger. We’ll see what else comes out of it.

Well, I’m going to take a break. I’m actually getting caught up on some of the notes I needed to, but there will be more in the future.
