Formosa Pouchong from Adagio Teas
88

Got this as part of Adagio’s Maestro Collection Sampler 1 and have been eager to try it. My patience has been rewarded with this tea. The flavor makes me reminisce some vegetal green teas while being a very complex and multi-layered oolong at heart. The first steep resulted in a light liquor and a sweet aroma and the 2nd and 3rd steeps became much more floral while losing the “green tea” flavors. Very much enjoyed this tea and look forward to experimenting with it more in the coming days.

I followed Adagio’s recommendations of 205ยบ for 2 minutes, using 3g leaves/8oz water.

I wonder how this differs from their other pouchong…

Good question, can’t answer that one though. This is the first Pouchong from Adagio that I’ve had.
