This is really different! It’s a cross between a Black and an Oolong…literally!
“Taiwan Honey Black Tea Oolong is produced following the method of making black tea oolong tea and using the raw tea leaves for oriental beauty. The oxidation of this tea is between black tea and oriental beauty oolong to preserve the flavor of black tea and the taste of oriental beauty oolong.”
This has a rich yet dry, sweet, and smooth type taste. I would totally agree in saying that it’s complex! I like Complex! I can pick up on the honey notes…it might be leaning more towards a mead flavor and not a commercially-sweet or flavored honey, if that makes sense.
I’m just finishing my 2nd cup of this and it’s certainly a tea that makes you think!
This is Dandy!

sounds yummy. I’ve got a weakness for teas with natural honey flavors.
Wow sounds a lot like this here:

The leaves are different and I remember the Verdant one being bolder and malty…this one isn’t malty…but they do have some general things in common, I suppose :)
