Big Red Robe Oolong from Chinese Tea Shop

gmathis drank Big Red Robe Oolong by Chinese Tea Shop

I don’t know that I’ve ever done nine entire cups of tea in a day (would be up all night for more reasons than one, but that’s way TMI…sorry!) — but I’m going to, in small doses, see how this one lives up to its multi-steep claim. Steep #2 is as good and golden as the first, so we’re off…

I’m on 4 or 5, lost count, but did two in a row to fill up a bottle for chilling (literally in the fridge and figuratively in the back yard) and it’s only lost a tad of its strength.

Bio

Somebody asked me once when I became a tea junkie; I think it dates back to college when I needed caffeine for a 7 a.m. class but chose not to do coffee. My favorite teapot is a medium-sized Brown Betty given to me by my Mema; the painted flowers are chipping off, but the size and feel is perfect. I rejoice when I get a morning to brew a pot of loose tea starting with a kettle; not a bag and a hot pot.
