This is a tasty sweet (not meaning sugar) oolong with almost no bitterness. It was brewed for me today at the Infuse Tea Bar at the Pleasures of Tea, a store/tea bar in West Sayville, NY. I got a variety of notes and a little sugar brought out an unusually sweet plum or berry note, not sure which. This was a good tea. I bought about four oolongs from the Pleasures of Tea today. I hope they are all as good as this one. This had sweet notes and it was brewed western style. I shall soon gongfu it and see what I get.

This was brewed four times in a 10oz tea pot. I am guessing the leaf quantity was about 3 tsp. The water was around 190 degrees and the steep times were around 3 min each.

Flavors: Plum

Preparation
180 °F / 82 °C 3 min, 0 sec 3 tsp 10 OZ / 295 ML

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
