Haven’t been logging for some time. Have just been drinking the same teas, though, so there was no real reason. However, just got 25g of this a couple days ago.
On first steep, really strong vanilla aroma! Too much for me, really with such a light base. I think the actual oolong doesn’t have an opportunity to shine.
A pleasant cup nonetheless, but probably won’t warrant a second purchase.
I have a lot to learn about tea. So far, I know that I love drinking it. Black tea with milk to wake me up in the morning, endless cups of green tea at Chinese restaurants with friends in the evening, spiced tea with sugar for an indulgence, herbal tea with honey to calm me down…TEA!
likes: vanilla, cinnamon, spices
less-liked: fruity teas, artificial additives (although I might be okay if I don’t know about them? I don’t know yet).
I’d like to blend my own tea someday, with essential oils and good quality plain tea and the like. The idea of my own earl grey or monk’s blend is really enticing.
