Notes:

•Toasted (aroma + taste)
•Smooth (starts and finishes smooth)
Steeped Tea Liquor Color: Golden-Amber
A mild but somewhat complex Oolong tea. Extremely clean and smooth with an overall nutty/toasted flavor. No bitter or acidic flavors present. Starts with a toasted flavor, the middle is slightly nutty gradually shifting to a mild hint of fruitiness and it finishes with a fruity and slightly sweet nutty and smokey flavor. (Whew! Yeah that’s what I meant by ‘complex’.) The lingering smokey/nutty flavor left on the palate is wonderful.

★★★ = Me Likey.
★★★★ = Impressive!
★★★★★ = AwesomeSauce!
Darn! Beat me to it. I just got some and was surprised to see it wasn’t up. XD Well, if it’s from Tao and has the TeaEqualsBliss seal of approval at least I know I’ll adore it.
Awwwww. Wuyi’s have taken me a little bit longer than other Oolongs to appreciate. Not that I didn’t enjoy them before but they are roastier and different than most of the other oolongs, at least I think so! I think they also have a bit of a texture to it…grainy at times. I will say that there WASN’T that texture with this specific one tho and for that I was grateful! Another reason I rated this one high…forgot to mention in my original review! :)
I can’t wait to try it! That texture is one of offputting traits that make me unsure about Wuyis. Maybe I’ll find more I like.
This is one of the more smooth textured wuyi’s I have tried so far
