Oolong leaves rolled and dipped in ginseng powder for an extra boost. This tea has a floral aroma and a unique sweet-tart flavour with a lingering aftertaste.
The Oolong leaves provide a floral, orchid like aroma and wonderful sweetness, while the ginseng adds a subtle tartness. In addition, the health benefits associated with the ginseng herb and tea makes an excellent choice to fight off the winter blahs.

De-cupboarding this tea. It was a quite a unique tea when I first purchased it, but now it looks like all the tea companies are jumping on the bandwagon and offering it. I liked ginseng oolong before it was cool. /hipster post ;D
Backing off the steeping time a bit seems to bring out a bit more of the oolong’s sweetness with the herbal ginseng notes a nice undertone to each sip. The tea keeps its flavour nicely through multiple steep too, although the ginseng fades after the first couple.
From the BC/Vacation Haul.
First cup of the day! I’ve been working on tasting notes, but I’m caught up now so I feel less guilty steeping something up now.
This isn’t really anything new to me or particularly unique; I just wanted a Ginseng Oolong on hand for a while since it’s been some time and I generally like the flavour profile. Plus, not gonna lie something about those moss green stone/pebble looking tea leaves just makes me whimsically/childishly happy. I like that this doesn’t overwhelm me with the sweetness of ginseng though; just teases me with it. Also, it’s pretty grassy which is totally enjoyable too.
Basically, it’s what I want from it. So no complaints.
Jillian! Have you received the travelling tea box yet?
Yes, it just came in today, actually. *is excited *
Thank goodness! We were all a little worried cause we hadn’t heard from you. So glad Canada post didn’t screw us over. :)
