My first taste of this1 was reminiscent of Lucky Charms marshmallows marinated in oolong. This second taste was a second steep, this time correctly pressing the oolong button on my kettle. The leaves, prior to steeping them a second time, were almost fully unfurled, making themselves quite comfortable in the roomy infuser. This time, the fragrance was not of Lucky Charms marshmallows, but of…cotton candy. The tea itself smelled mostly like the oolong, with faint, sweet undertones. The flavour is a bit hard for me to describe. Adjectives that come to mind include “mature” and “baked,” maybe “layered.” It’s quite nice, really.

have you ever had lucky charms marshmallows marinated in Oolong?
Hee hee. No, I haven’t. But it smelled like how that might taste. =)
It actually sounds quite interesting. I’d be willing to try it.
I always wanted to try Lucky Charms when I was a kid, but was never allowed. I can’t bring myself to buy a box as an adult, maybe this might be the perfect alternative?
Oh go on, buy the box! =) But yes, this might be an alternative, although I haven’t (yet) tried any of the marshmallow or cotton candy teas that our Steepster friends have been reviewing of late.
