“One of my favorite oolongs! Orchid sweetness and a delicate taste. Can be resteeped up to 5 times.” Read full tasting note
a very tasty oolong with floral undertones good for about 4 steeps, i think the second steeping has the most flavor though
I’ve had this tea for a while. I might have brewed it a smidge too hot the first steep. The flavor wasn’t there. It did get slightly better once it cooled down and on the 2nd and 3rd steeps with cooler water. Buttery with slight floral at end. I had a much better oolong last night. This definitely suffers in comparison.
Flavors: Butter, Floral
This tea is normally out for free tasting at Teavana in one of their (in my opinion) over priced iron cast teapots. I’ve tried this a few times and have yet to find it to taste the way that I want my rolled oolong to taste like. Sugar was not added to the samples I’ve tried, which is nice of them to not do for this tea (though they do it too often), but there is still a lack of aroma and flavor that I hope to find in oolongs. The oolong used for this tea would pair nicely with floral aspects and used as a summer tea, however for what it is just doesn’t rise to the challenge of better than decent.
I’m always slightly amused when I see that people still have Teavana in their stashes :) glad it was still good!
