Hand Picked Spring Tieguanyin (2012) from Verdant Tea

So hard to explain a difference between green and oolong tea to normal ppl… TGY is probably one of the closest to greens in taste of Oolong family but still very much different. Which I am reminded of every time I drink good TGY like this one. No astringency, very round and buttery taste (although not as buttery as Autumn ’11 harvest) strong, developed foreground. Although I ’m more of a “black” person, a cup or two of this TGY is always good idea.

Oolong always has a richer taste to me than green does. I love them both dearly though. TGY may be one of my favorite oolongs.
