Oh là là! This is a very nice oolong tea. Upon opening the pouch, the nose is presented with the scent of freshly mown grass, with a hint of spice. The tea liquors to a cloudless and radiant amber colour that is appealing to behold. The flavour is light, but in no manner weak, of delicate fruit and flowers. There is no hint of grassiness, which often mars lesser green oolongs, nor of astringency. This tea is refreshing and delightful: it could easily become a favourite.
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.
