Togo drank Pear Mountain Oolong (Winter Pick) by Mountain Stream Teas

994 tasting notes

I ordered the whole Pear Mountain sampler with 4 different harvest times and drank them all today. This one is my least favourite I’d say. The dry leaf smell is very similar to the fall pick, but I find it sweeter and greener. The wet leaf has more of an artificial, sweet gum aroma. Taste is kind of like a green tea, but more floral. Overall, it is not too interesting though. Aftertaste is more intriguing. There are notes of cinnamon, cream cheese, nuts and minerals. The mouthfeel is quite thin, buttery, watery and slightly drying.

Flavors: Artificial, Butter, Cheesecake, Cinnamon, Cream, Floral, Green, Mineral, Nutty

Preparation

205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 45 sec 5 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
