The highest grade of semi-fermented tea of Fujian type, characterised by a higher degree of fermentation and great abundance of tips. A deep amber cup which gives a semi-sweet and slightly earthy flavor.
Buttery and somewhat flowery liqueur with a nutty aroma reminiscent of freshly shelled walnuts. A little blunt in the mouth but the high notes are worth it if you stop to appreciate them.
Very close to black tea, but has that Oolong flavor as a foundation. I was impressed how the flavor came thru into the 3rd infusion. Very nice, would go well with chow mein. An easy to drink oolong on the oxidized side…with smoother energy than black tea.
(see note on Bai Hao…darn alternative spellings, these are the same tea and I’m not steepstersavvy enough to combine these descriptions!)
