Kawaii433 drank Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea by Teavivre

351 tasting notes

Kind of my go-to milk oolong due to the price and taste, and decided after tasting lots of samples yesterday, I felt like it was time to enjoy a tea that I don’t think I can ever get tired of. In the mornings. I prefer a non-bitter, not-sharp, stomach-soothing warm cup of tea which this is. Whenever I buy things from Teavivre, I always add samples of this one because it’s my fallback tea. It’s vegetal, milky, slightly buttery, without an artificial taste, light but not too light, and after several infusions, it never gets bitter. Good price, good taste if you like Jin Xuan. ^^

Bio

Longtime casual tea drinker. In the past, mainly Sencha, Matcha. I’m currently into Oolong, Black & Pu’erh.

Gongfu cha is the main way I prepare my tea (gaiwan or Yixing teapot). I drink all tea… Usually unflavored. I do try some flavored now. I don’t like artificial sweeteners.

Favorite stores: TeaVivre, What-Cha, Mandala Tea, Yunnan sourcing, White2Tea, Lupicia. (Note: I love the teaware from TeaVivre and Yunnan sourcing.) Good experiences with 52Teas, Harney & Sons, Whispering Pines

Flavors I dislike are artificial flavors, especially artificial sweeteners. Strong lavender, violet, any strong floral-perfumey tea; cantaloupe, ripe papaya, sweet honeydew.

Can handle a little of the following: Rose, licorice, anise, jasmine, mint, spearmint, peppermint, leather.

Favorite flavors: Citrus fruits (especially grapefruit & tangerines), granny smith apple, bananas, guava, mango, tamarind, watermelon, stonefruits, all fruits except cantaloupe, chocolate, caramel, vanilla, milk, cinnamon, creme, bread, nuts, toasted, roasted.

I generally don’t add anything to my teas.

As I explore, my ratings may shift. 90+ generally means I’ll keep it on my shelf.
