This smells like malt, cookie, and apple.
It’s infuses to a medium brown.
This is unflavored but has a lovely natural apple touch to it.
A little bit of all of the following…crusty, malty, sweet, apple, cookie, woodsy – on the tongue! YUM!
Mountain tea calls this an oolong, but it tastes more like an incredibly rich assam or Ceylon to me. Very rich nose, taste, and finish, without any bitterness. Rich and complex. I brewed 3.0 gm in 6 oz of water for 1 minute. A second steeping had the same good character but was not quite as powerful
