“Yeah, this is better. Floral, strawberry, green oolong. I prefer Butiki’s and Teavivre’s to this one, but this is pretty darn good. Last little bit is cold steeping in the fridge. Thanks!” Read full tasting note

Description

Very Velvet, indeed! This tea exudes a luscious, intense, velvety-smooth flavor and a fresh, blossomy aroma.

As you brew Very Velvet Oolong, the tightly curled leaves expand enormously as they impart a soft amber color into hot water. The enticing and aromatic notes of strawberry and blue cornflower combine with the distinctly floral quality of a full-bodied green oolong. Floral flavors are balanced by the buttery undertones of the savory-sweet oolong. Further complexities come forward with peachy notes and a hint of jasmine. The aftertaste leaves you with a lush, refreshing flavor to savor…

Tasting Notes: smooth, savory, floral, fruity

Ingredients: Oolong, blue cornflowers, strawberry pieces, flavor.

Steeping Instructions: 1.5 tsp per cup, 180F, 4 min.
