To prevent people from thinking Whispering Pines might pay me to write such raving reviews…I will try to show some restraint for this next note.

This is an average roasted oolong
I looove this type of oolong sooo much, this one looks and smells FANTASTIC, nothing average about it!!!

I am using the Gaiwan. I show no sign of excitement while I’m waiting for it to cool down a bit.
are you kidding me? I can barely breathe, that’s how impatient I am, I could just dunk my whole face in it, that’s how tempting this is…so what, second degree burn.

The color of the brew is brown.
omg the liqueur looks like the most beautiful dark amber colour I have ever seen!

I’ve had another roasted oolong last night, so nothing new and special here…
well, yesterday I drank my favourite roasted oolong EVER, so yeah,I’d say there is something special here, cause I’m super picky and this tastes amazing!!

Ok, sorry but I’m back to being my enthusiastic self. Sorry.

I love this. It’s sweet, it’s very roasty, taste like caramel and coffee. Like a nice shot of espresso. Not that I drink that much coffee anymore, but every now and then, I get my fix and this tea could totally do the work instead. Also, i bet this would make the most delicious Tiramisu dessert ever.

It will not replace my Butiki 2003 Reserve Four Season oolong, but I loved it and it’s absolutely worth keeping around!

Profile

Bio

I am French Canadian, so please forgive me if my English is not always perfect :-/

My relationship with tea in a nutshell:

I’m married to straight Black. I have torrid love affairs with Oolong and Puerh. I party with Green and White occasionally. Flavored are not my BFF, I usually stay away from them.

Love Steepster, a place for tea lovers, where you learn and share with others.

About me:

I am a free spirit, I let people be who they are and expect the same in return.

Books! I love classic literature, but also modern and pretty much anything that captures my attention.

Music is also something I can’t live without… From Bach to Nirvana, my ears know no boundaries…

Animal and nature lover, amateur photographer.

I’ve been drinking tea for as long as I can remember.

Drinking tea is a sensorial experience. The name in itself “Camellia Sinensis” lingers the promess of an adventure for the senses…

Not a big «swapper», but will occasionally. Not because I don’t want to share but because I’m trying not to hoard so much.

Also, I have narrowed down the teas I really like over the years, and I don’t feel the need to try and buy everything the way I used to. (Maybe I have become a tea snob? Sigh…)

My ratings: because I pretty much drink only teas that I judge exceptional, my ratings are usually high. Don’t be shocked to see lots of 90’s and a few 100’s. That’s because I’ve had my share of crapy teas and I’m done with that ;-)

You can find me on Instagram here, I post about my tea sessions mostly, but also about the beautiful nature that surrounds me, and my fury companions :-)
