A new rock oolong with a distinctive character, a typically roasted but also sweetly spicy aroma and flavor with a distinctly sweet aftertaste.

This gongfu session tasting note will be rather short.
I have used 4 grams for my 125 ml gaiwan and used almost boiling water… approx 93°C water.
Quick rinse to release first aromas, which were delightful… roasted, mineral, with hints of red fruits. On blind test I would guess right that it is a rock oolong.
Following steeps were tasty, with a moderate long mouthfeel. Flavours that I noticed were fruity, with hints of minerality… later steeps a bit more like spicy, but not distinct enough to describe the spices.
Is it worth 0.18$/gram? I don’t feel experienced enough to tell that. But it is fine for daily drinking. I think it is not a top-notch tea, but let’s try also different preparation method and more focused gongfu, to find out; if it was worth. Or it is because 3 years old?
