this is a good, good oolong. on my third steeping right now, and it has remained a delicious, deep, ever-changing flavorful cuppa the entire time. creamy and smooth, just a touch of floral (mostly in the scent, very light, not in the taste, just the way i like it). i will be coming back for more!

YUM i completely don’t recall how/if i wrote about this tea before, but it is hitting the spot this evening. while brewing, it looks like an algae-filled still and murky pool, in a cool mysterious way, like a mermaid will swim out of the murk any minute. it kinda tastes like that too, first steeping at any rate. NOM.

Testing the app….this one ive had in my cupboard for YEARS, wasn’t expecting much, so was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty good! Actually second steep that i forgot about and left for like 15 minutes was even better.

had two steepings of this this morning, was wonderful – a black tea that doesn’t make me want to add milk and/or sugar! yay! better notes next time.
