Togo drank Longfengxia High Mountain Spring Oolong Tea, Lot 826 by Taiwan Tea Crafts

554 tasting notes

This tea is fairly average in everything but the aroma, which is very nice with notes of pastries, tropical fruits, wild garlic and many other floral/fruity ones. The taste is somewhat sour and displays flavours of pine resin, lemon tart, broccoli and grass, with lime leaves and rapini emerging in the aftertaste. Mouthfeel is not too engaging and quite astringent for that matter.

Flavors: Astringent, Broccoli, Floral, Fruity, Grass, Lemon, Lime, Pastries, Pine, Plants, Pleasantly Sour, Resin, Tropical, Vegetables, Vegetal

Bio

Currently, I am a PhD student at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds.

I have been a fan of green tea for a while and only recently (in 2017) started exploring other kinds of tea in greater depth. I rarely drink blends or white tea and avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied. The one thing that I am currently missing in my collection are teas from India, in particular some Darjeelings.
