I found this to be a delightful tea that had a nice fruity and even (dare I say) spicy scent to it while dry… it smelled somewhat like lickerish, the liquor was a pale green and the flavor was smooth and buttery with a floral aftertaste.

Oolong Tea by Camellia Sinensis
This small batch of aged wulong comes to us from the Wen Shan Mountains, at the northern end of Taiwan. Initially oxidised very little, 25 years of successive firings have imparted certain rustic aromatic notes: mineral (similar to Pu Er), wood, grain (toasted barley), and tart fruit (raisins, cranberries, plums) combine to make this a warm, comforting tea ideal for cool evenings.
