I don’t have much experience with oolong, so this is new ground for me. Dry, this smells a lot like fresh coconut. The aroma extends into the brewed tea, which is a yellow green color. However, the taste is nutty and not very much like coconut at all. The coconut flavor sort of lingers in the mouth instead of kicking you in the teeth.
I’ve just recently discovered the world of loose tea and am really enjoying myself. I’m still in SAMPLE EVERYTHING mode, and likely always will be.
I love green teas, chai, and citrus flavors. I don’t mind hibiscus. I will drink a bitter green tea, but won’t drink bitter black tea. I’m working on figuring out which black teas work for me.
I tend to drink my tea without milk or sugar.
I’m using Steepster’s Cupboard function to actually reflect my current tea stock, otherwise I’d never be able to remember what I already have.
