Tao Tea LeafThanks Taiwan Tea Crafts for the sample!
These little beads of oolong are actually rather large compared to most. After the first infusion the leaves have a really fragrant floral scent with notes of spices and a hint of roast. In the flavor, there’s a hazelnut note, the mild relaxing toasted taste you get in most roasted teas, and a lingering floral taste, some notes of spices as well.
In the second infusion, the tea is much more floral tasting, actually quite stronger in that regard than any other Dong Ding I’ve had. There’s a honey note as well and the roasted note has diminished. It’s tasting much “greener”.
Later infusions became more mellow with more of the roasted and nutty flavors coming forward. This is a great comfort tea.
Flavors: Flowers, Hazelnut, Honey, Toast
