China Anxi Oolong Select

Oolong Tea by SpecialTeas

We are excited to be able to offer this outstanding Oolong at a great price. While strictly taken not a Ti Kuan Yin, the Anxi Oolong has the leaf appearance of a superior Ti Kuan Yin and is manufactured in the same method. Its rich, sweet flavor and a long, pleasant finish make it a superb value. Use a generous amount of leaves and enjoy multiple infusions. Also great when chilled.

This is an absolutely delicious oolong. Very sweet and aromatic.

This is probably the best oolong I’ve had (although I’ve admittedly only had a few). I got 3 good steeps at like 2:30, 2:45, 3:00 minutes with 195 degree water. Tastes a lot like a ti kuan yin but a bit lighter and even a bit sweeter.

On my way out the door with a mug of this. Tastes like steel-cut oatmeal with a nice honey finish. I tend to like heartier, more savory oolongs, so I like this a lot.

The last of my sample of this – I’ve seriously had it for about a year, which is odd, because I really like this tea. It’s definitley one of my favorite oolongs that I’ve tried. May reorder the larger size, especially since this is such a good deal.

So full of love for this tea, which tastes like liquid oatmeal with a big spoonful of honey. Saving my homemade bag for another infusion.

Round two! Not quite as sweet as the last one; more hearty. I’m alright with that.
