Wuyi Mountain Big Red Robe from Verdant Tea

JC drank Wuyi Mountain Big Red Robe by Verdant Tea

My first order from Verdant tea. And it was great. I really liked this Oolong and would recommend to people who like ‘heavier’ notes. The notes specified on their page are right in tune with the tea. The most apparent to me were: Cinnamon, Chocolate, Malt; the fruity notes were more like hints to me.

I’m saving this tea for those moments that I’m fully dedicated to tasting, this is the kind of tea that makes it worthy.

Discovered tea a few years ago and I’ve been exploring ever since. I’m looking forward to keep learning and enjoy tea as I do. Keep learning, those who “know” stop learning and become irrelevant to the world.

I’m adding the scale because I noted that we all use the same system but it doesn’t mean the same to all.(I rate the tea not by how much I ‘like it’ only; there are flavors/scents I don’t like but they are quality and are how they are supposed to be and I rate them as such).

90 – 100: AMAZING. This the tea I feel you should drop whatever you are doing and just enjoy.

80-89: Great tea that I would recommend because they are above ‘average’ tea, they usually posses that ‘something’ extra that separates them from the rest.

70-79: An OK tea, still good quality, taste and smell. For me usually the tea that I have at work for everyday use but I can still appreciate and get me going through my day.

60-69: Average nothing special and quality is not high. The tea you make and don’t worry about the EXACT time of steep because you just want tea.

30-59: The tea you should probably avoid, the tea that you can mostly use for iced tea and ‘hide’ what you don’t like.

1-29: Caveat emptor! I feel sorry for my enemies when they drink this tea. :P
