2 Tasting Notes
so, i bought this tea as well at the same store on Granville street. This one and the Honey Red Jade. Two totally different teas, this is a very floral oolong at $11.99 per box, 15 individually wrapped sachets.
A couple of things on this tea: first, when you open the tea sachet, it smells amazing. like really light and fragrant flower. then after i brew it, the leaves expanded so much that i thought the sachet would burst. very easy to drink throughout the day. i really like this whole leaf tea, already prepared in sachet. Makes the morning and the commute easy. Golden Tea Leaf really put some thought into this oolong, it is as good as any loose tea i buy, but so much more convenient. it’s a no brainer grab and go in the morning.
Flavors: Floral, Sweet
Preparation
I bought this tea in the boxed form, from a local store on Granville street here in Vancouver. This is a great tea. At first, I did not know what it is, and figured that I try it. It has this honey fragrance, and tastes as good, if not better than the smell. This is a black tea at heart, but the taste is not bitter. with a slight hints of citrus. the citrus and honey smell and taste is even more when the tea is cooled down.
Flavors: Caramel, Citrusy, Floral, Honey, Honeysuckle
