Heavy steep; I taste/smell:
(Smell) little to no floral.
(Taste) light —> metallic (iron? Copper?), nuts (peanuts? Cashews?). Medium -→ roasted nuts, toasty, floral.
Al in all one if the best roasted oolongs I’ve ever tried! I rate a 95/100. Nice tastes/aromas, nice cha qi. Nearly if not impossible to over brew IMHO.
I suggest you try it!
