I experienced lots of tea excitement this week end so tonight, I need to go to an old friend of mine.
It saddens me to see that this type of oolong isn’t more popular on here. It’s pretty spectacular to me. I’ve reviewed it more than once, so tonight I’m just gonna reiterate how precious it is.
It’s aged and roasted, so you must expect something that doesn’t taste like your average tea. Very sweet, charcoal notes and caramel, a true liquid crème brûlée.
The brew has a certain bite to it, it kind of tastes like mocha and black rich coffee. It keeps changing and evolving at every steep, a real chameleon!
If you like to get out of your comfort zone and try something different, go for this or 1991 Da Ye Aged Oolong. They are both superb aged oolong and give you a run for your money, they steep forever…

Oh boy, do I have some fond memories of this one… Definitely need to reorder sometime soon if it is still available.
I know right? I’ve been siping two litres of water on this so far…and it’s still giving, getting sweeter and sweeter.

I just ordered some because of this note.
Haha! Hope you like it. I call it my caramel charcoal tea :-)
It sounds so yummy.
I almost place an order on Friday night…… The logical side of me got the better of it. Soon enough.
I wish I had a logical side when it comes to tea. It would come in so handy.
Oh yes, more logic for me please ;-)
Do you think logic takes Visa? What do reckon shipping is on it?
Lol, wonder if Logic sells on ebay…
