Togo drank Dong Ding Oolong Tea, medium roasted by Tea Side

997 tasting notes

A fairly simple and reliable tea, but it lacks something that would elevate it above similar teas meant for casual drinking.

The dry leaf aroma is flowery with notes of baked apples and stonefruits. After the rinse, the scent reminds me of macaroons and other biscuits, as well as olives. Then, in the empty cup, I mostly get a sweet florals.

The taste is mineral with strong honey notes and flavours of persimmon and mint tea, without the cooling sensation of the latter. The aftertaste is actually a little cooling and also brings hints of lemon zest into the picture.

Flavors: Apple, Candied Apple, Cookie, Floral, Flowers, Fruity, Lemon Zest, Mineral, Mint, Olives, Stonefruit, Sweet

Hi, I am a researcher in math, physics and computer science. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds. Connect at https://rateyourmusic.com/~Togo

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
