I received a sachet of this as a free sample with my most recent order.

It is DELIGHTFUL. The toasted nut flavor is intense for a lighter bodied tea. It has a very pleasing mouthfeel, soft and not too thick. A very nice caramel-y backdrop to it.

Very pleasant… I’m off to write a review for it which will appear later this month on the SororiTEA Sisters blog!

I generally don’t care for Oolong but this one seems pretty nice. It has a smooth subtle flavor that I like.

For whatever reason I didn’t get the water as hot as I usually do for a second steeping and the result was a subtle flavor and maybe a little weak, but not unpleasant.

I’m feeling annoyed at everybody and everything today and this tea is hitting the spot.
