Yellow Gold Oolong

Oolong Tea by Teance

Yellow Gold Oolong
Moderate Caffeine
Anxi, Fujian, China
Steepings: 6

This is an under-appreciated Oolong, with orchid-like fragrance and golden liqueur. The spring crop is outstanding. Astoundingly fragrant and accessible to beginner and connoisseur alike. This tea was named after the fact that the most sought after type of yellow gold was used to make purchases of an equally sought after tea in ancient times. Spring 2011 Harvest

I absolutely love this oolong. It is light, floral, and citrusy. I love the fact that each steeping gives a new flavor profile. When I serve this tea to guests, they are always amazed at its yumminess.

This is a really tasteful tea. I particular enjoy drinking it after a heavy meal. The colorful and floral flavors makes it a pleasant drink for any occasion. I find that the floral taste really comes out when you drink take your time with drinking the tea. Take a breath in, take a sip, swallow, and breath out – it really brings out the color of this tea. Definitely a keeper.
