Dinosara drank Sugar Caramel Oolong by Golden Moon Tea

2201 tasting notes

I made this tea (#48) and then almost immediately had to leave the building because of a fire alarm. Turned out to be optimal. This is one of those teas that is really best once it cools waaaaaay down, to the point that it is only lukewarm. Then it is full of sweetness and caramel and tasty. Until then those flavors are hidden behind roasted vegetables. Still not my favorite oolong but reasonably tasty nonetheless.

Preparation

195 °F / 90 °C 3 min, 0 sec 2 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

I am tea obsessed, with the stash to match. I tend to really enjoy green oolongs, Chinese blacks, and flavored teas with high quality bases, especially florals, bergamot-based teas, and chocolate teas.

In my free time I am a birder, baker, and music/movie/tv addict.

Here are my rating categories, FYI:
100-90: Mind-blowingly good, just right for my palate, and teas that just take me to a happy place.
89-86: I really really like these teas and will keep most of them in the permanent collection, but they’re not quite as spectacular as the top category
85-80: Pretty tasty teas that I enjoy well enough, but definitely won’t rebuy when I run out.
79-70: Teas that I would probably drink again, but only if there were no preferrable options.
69-50: Teas that I don’t really enjoy all that much and wouldn’t drink another cup of.
49 and below: Mega yuck. This tea is just disgusting to me.
Unrated: Usually I feel unqualified to rate these teas because they are types of teas that I tend to not like in general. Sometimes user error or tea brewed under poor conditions.
