Taiwan Floral (Blue Jade) Oolong Tea from FONG MONG TEA
91

Down the rabbit hole – I understand that different tea growing regions will produce different flavor profiles based on numerous growing conditions. I can wrap my head around white tea tasting different than green, and green different than black, but oolongs boggle my mind. They taste nothing like white, green, or black. Logically I would think they would taste in between green and black but the don’t. They’re like alien tea. So weird.

OK this tea – this is a lovely floral oolong. It is kind of spicy on the first cup. A little planty tasting. I did not notice the typical latex taste on the first but it is a little present in the second. This stuff re-steeps great and each cup is as good or better than the last. Lingering aftertaste. High yum factor.

I read my previous review of this. Wow, back when my stress level was normal this was really amazing. I am more than ready to leave this wilderness wandering behind. Bring on the Promised Land flowing with tea and honey :)

I like to tell my church kids that manna were the original Frosted Flakes (Exodus 16:14). Here’s to new provision every morning.
