Interesting!

At first…this sort of tasted like Hojicha…roasted and a bit green. Then…as I continued to sip I noticed the taste morph into a roasted sweet woodsy type taste…then…the peachy notes hit me, subtly…that is.

This is really special! It’s like Dong Ding with Super Powers or something!

I really like this!

OK, I realize this probably comes from hanging around 7-year-olds all week, but am I the only one who gets the giggles when I read “Dong Ding Oolong?”

And Dong Ding is the same thing as Tung Ting, so how do they choose which to call it?

Sounds like a pastry with chocolate on it!

Wow. I just published my review of this on my blog and came here to comment as well. There is already a review here by TeaEqualsBliss my blog entry looks like a long version of what she wrote. Two separate reviews coming that close to each other is amazing. At least you should know what can expect with this one! http://theeverdayteablog.blogspot.com/2013/07/tea-horse-dong-ding-oolong.html

Sipdown!
Thanks to KS for sharing this tea with me. It’s mildly roasty & nutty, & although I didn’t really get any peach, I did get the floral quality of it.
