Awe man, someone reviewed this before I did!
My first tasting of this had some funk to it, but I have retasted it a few times and find that fresh roast needs some time to settle; probably going to be true about all processes of any tea.
I kind of described it all on Instagram by replying to someone with:
“yeah… It is a tricky one. What I like most is how the texture of buttery sticks through the roasting of the jin xuan. The coffee, Brazilian one picked out by someone here locally, is already on the light side but my roasting at a SUPER light level keeps it mild and in the back but on the sides of the tongue. The roast comes through both lightly with that hint of warm nut, even though there is no nut taste. The oolong taste sticks with the mountain oolong taste upfront and changes a bit throughout. Its certainly like having a watered down coffee injected into a semi roasted mountain oolong with some texture. It’s not the best thing out there, but it’s quite unique and different.”
I was left with a few options on different ways to brew it as well so I look forward to playing around with this even more :)

Edit I find it funny how all of my teas scores go down when I assign no point value :p
