This was another of my samples from the reddit giveaway.

First off, let me say that my coworkers and I wholeheartedly disagree with the tasting notes on the bag, which said that the tea tasted of sourdough and honey.

But this tea was quite nice. It had a warm, comforting feel to it, as well as that undefinable Christmas flavor that I chase after in the greener oolongs. My coworker and I were trying to define that flavor. It’s spicy—nutmeg maybe? Sweet potatoes? She thought she maybe tasted some evergreen tree in there.

Of course, floral was the predominate flavor, but it wasn’t overwhelming like the Jin Xuan. The only thing that II could really fault this tea for is that it is temperamental. It is easily made astringent and even a bit bitter if brewed too long.

I’ve seen some describe dark and greener oolongs using mint, eucalyptus, cinnamon, menthol, and pine for that escalating mouth feel, sometimes in the taste. I’ve had a Cui Ruan that had a weird cinnamon cream thing going on amongst all its grassiness. The darker roast thing that goes one with the Vietnam Buffalo sometimes reminds me of chestnut, but not always. It’s very fall-winter tea making me think of that holiday too.

Does any of this match to what you are talking about or am I just rattling on your page lol?

I’m thinking maybe I resonate with the the cinnamon (but maybe with sweet potato), cream, and pine. Chestnut maybe? I would have to be tasting one and thinking of chestnuts to see if I could taste that.
