Da Hong Pao (Big Red Robe) Wuyi Rock Oolong Tea Fujian from Teavivre
80

My gustatory sense is somewhat dulled, as I am battling a cold. Perhaps that is why I don’t taste the delicate aromas others have noted, such as chocolate, fruits and flowers. I find this tea pleasant, slightly tart, earthy. It is a good, flavourful oolong. I will be trying this one more often.

Bio

Mr Steep often steeps tea until he remembers to drink it. He enjoys this laissez faire approach, but the Gongfu method has seduced him, despite the requisite mindfulness to tea-making.

Mr Steep mostly avoids flavoured teas: flavouring rarely makes something out of nothing.

Mr Steep likes tea plain, or variously with lemon, fruit juice, honey, spices, cow’s milk or soy milk, as appropriate.

Mr Steep applies this philosophy to good coffee, too.
