Backlogging this as I am now finishing up my final cup after six infusions.
The flavor of this is so interesting. It starts out rather intense with a sweet and sour fruit note, and the sour dissipates with each subsequent infusion, and the sweetness that is quite honey-like emerges stronger. It starts with a resinous pine note, and this eventually subsides and becomes more of a woodier kind of flavor. With the sixth cup, I recognize a papaya-like flavor that becomes clearer as I near the bottom of the cup.
A really intriguing Oolong. I enjoyed it very much.
Six infusions?! WOW – that’s a record! :) Sounds absolutely delicious too…down to the last drop.
Man I love oolongs!
