Hand Picked Tieguanyin Spring Oolong (2011) from Verdant Tea
100

I’m enjoying this precious nectar after a salad of bitter gourd tossed with long green hots with a vinegar soy dressing. After last nights Orchid Oolong I had to revisit this spring beauty. This is a nice way to digest the spicy hot bitter salad. It’s a soft loving caress in comparison. The Chinese believe in having something bitter, sour, salty, pungent, sweet and I know I’m missing something. There should be a heaven taste. That’s what this is….

I am an avid surfer, gardener, golfer and freespirit. I have been a tea drinker forever. Tea has provided me with contentment. I love White, Oolong, Green, Black and Pu’er. I do not care for flavored tea and nor will I comment on it.
