From Verdant Tea

Master Zhang is proud to be sharing true Tieguanyin varietal oolong, fed by mountain spring water and grown without pesticides or fertilizers under the high mountain mist. Most Tieguanyin sold is actually Benshan or other similar varietals which lack the long drawn out aftertaste of Tieguanyin. The biodiversity of Daping and the mountain soil lend intense complexity and depth of flavor to this tea.

Sip Down

I decided last night that I needed a cup of tea to get through the final hours of the weekend shift (thank goodness this is 4-6 weekends per year), and this happened to be on the top of the sip down pile. I know I over leafed the session, but there was only 7g left. I was too lazy to try to figure out the tea ware to tea ratio for the session, so in went all 7g into 120ml gaiwan.

Notes: The tea had a nice roasted seaweed flavor throughout. It was strong for the first 4-5 infusions before it began losing strength. I hadn’t noted anything else, but the tea lasted 11 infusions before I decided to head to bed. I’ll also note that my (tea) dreams were weird.

From the Autumn 2015 stock…

I steeped this at 190 degrees with 5 grams of tea. The taste was very typical oolong, but very very good. The flavor was very buttery, full, and sweet. Strong taste of honey. Very smooth without a bit of astringency. I would highly recommend for any oolong lover.

Flavors: Butter, Honey
