Black Pearl from Mountain Tea
89

Mountain tea calls this an oolong, but it tastes more like an incredibly rich assam or Ceylon to me. Very rich nose, taste, and finish, without any bitterness. Rich and complex. I brewed 3.0 gm in 6 oz of water for 1 minute. A second steeping had the same good character but was not quite as powerful

My ratings will be based on multiple tastings. Green and oolong teas are generally 3 grams of tea in 5 oz water for 1 minute. Black teas are 3 grams of tea in 12 oz water for 3-4 minutes.
