This is another sample from Krystaleyn. Thanks again! It is my last sample from her, sad face.
Another very interesting tea. I know it says mango but really it feels more like peach to me. I get a hint of coconut right after the oolong. The oolong is sweet and again reminds me of rocks. Maybe my tasters are off today. I’d say it’s earthy but I find no vegetal or moist hints in it. Yay, more oolong! Thanks again.

I cannot believe how quickly you two blasted through these samples! I definitely have tons of yours left to go. Pitfalls of having too much tea around, I think? (I just looked and I think the only review I didn’t see was of a teabag I sent – or did I not end up sending one because I was over the weight limit?? I don’t remember!)
Also yes, not all oolongs have the vegetal flavour, and this would be one that doesn’t. I did get a lovely oolong aftertaste with this one though, if I recall correctly.
You are right there is a tea bag! That’s part of the beauty of sharing cups. I can brew 2 teas at one time. Score! What’s an oolong aftertaste?
Ummmm, I can’t describe it except as an oolong aftertaste XD
I find that oolongs, whites, greens all have a similar lingering aftertaste. It may in fact be the same one, but based on the tea I’m drinking I associate it as the aftertaste of a specific tea. It’s just…. good. And lingers. Like, really lingers, often.

I’ve had a few after tastes but I generally move on to another tea pretty quickly. I’ll have to let that after taste develop some time and examine it.
