From Oolong Inc

A blast of delicious sweetness. This blend starts out with subtle grassy taste of green tea at first. The rich combination of aroma and nectarine taste are released in the second and third infusion. Enjoy the journey of discoveries

Steeping in a Cup

Infuse 1 heaping teaspoon of rose green tea in one cup of hot water, 70 to 80 degrees celsius ( 180 Fahrenheit). Cover and wait 4-5 minutes for each infusion. Adjust steeping durations for different caffeine levels. These tea leaves should last a few infusions in the cup. Observe the change of flavor from one cup to the next. Filter bags are recommended.

Steeping with a small Tea Pot

Fill the pot with about 1/4 full of tea leaf, and apply water around 70 to 80 degree celsius (180 Fahrenheit).First infusion should be 90 seconds, second around 60 seconds, subsequent infusions should be progressively longer. Taste lasts at least 4 infusions. Adjust steeping durations for different caffeine levels. Observe the change of flavor from one infusion to the next.

Received this and two other delicious-sounding teas this morning from Oolong Inc. (samples provided free for review). Rose is one of my favorite flavors and the directions on the website indicated that this would be a good office steeper, so here I am, Western brewing this beautiful melange.
It’s been a while since I had a flavored green tea, lately it’s been all fresh Spring greens, all the time, so this is a good change of pace!
The dry leaves smell heavily of stately rose and nectarine. I can’t really get a sense for leaf quality behind those two aromas, but they look like mostly whole unrolled leaves.
My office smells like a bubble tea shop-all fruity and fresh as this tea brews. Again, the nectarine, though it has some yellow peach notes now that it’s wet, and those dried rose petals that you put in potpourri, not quite as strong as rose oil, but not quite as sweet as candied petals.
Oh man, this is yummy! It reminds me a ton of the white peach and rose water sorbet I made last summer! Oh la la! I could see this becoming my go-to rose tea! And it is so reasonably priced! The steep was around four minutes long, and I can taste that in the slight metallic undertones of the base tea, but the rose and white nectarine (finally figured it out!) flavors are punch and leave a long-lasting aftertaste.
Seriously, with some sweetener, this would be an amazing popsicle, and I could see this iced as the hit of the picnic. While the base green tea is definitely nothing to write home about, it serves admirably as the toast to this jam. Generally, I prefer when floral scents accent the natural flavors of high quality teas, but this is a great flavored tea at a price that you might expect it to be not-so-stellar and I’m definitely going to add a quantity of this to my collection.
