Steepster seems to be having hiccups again. I tried to add this tea to the catalog but was unable to do so. Today I drank Competition Grade 3rd Place Muzha Tie Guan Yin Roasted Oolong Tea Winter 2016 from Taiwan Sourcing. This was a very lightly roasted oolong tea. The roast was not strong but lasted through the eighth steep. A sweet note was hidden behind the roasted note. I am not sure how to describe it however. If I had been able to enter this into the catalog I would probably given it about a 90. It was really good.
I steeped this twelve times with 7.2g leaf and 190 degree water in a 100ml gaiwan. I gave it a 10 second rinse. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec, 1 min, 1.5 min, and 2 min.
Flavors: Roasted
