Re-review of this tea, after competing all my dark roast Oolongs against each other in a gongfu steep-off, I found this one to be quite a superior tea.
What I liked about it was the way after a few steeps some floral creaminess appeared that I missed in my first tastings. I’m unsure why I missed this flavour – as this tasted really very heavily mineral before.
The fact that it has a nice roast, not too much but still strong, and the change from roast to creamy floral made it a much more enjoyable experience, so I’ve upped the score a bit to reflect that. A few of the others just faded out instead of making a nice interesting change like this one.
