Typical dian hong flavor.
Sweet with very little astringency.

7g / 220ml yixingpot 3 infusions @ 85-90C 1-2-3 min

Very nice quality.

Nice fruity oolong. Taste abit like a normal black first flush.
Cant really handle many infusions.

I usually do 1 powerful infusion.

8g / 400ml @ 80-85C for 3min

Just a hint of astringency.

This tea smells very nice indeed.
Long leaves.

Not really sure of how to get the most out of this.
I used 7g / 220ml yixingpot with 95C water.

3 Infusions
1: 1min
2: 2min
3. 3min

First infusion was pleaseant without astringency. But felt like it was a bit weaker then it should.
I think next time i will use 10g and slightly longer infusions.

A yunnan Bi Luo Chun processed as a white tea.
A very light tea with a sweet floral aftertaste.

Not quite as good as Yin Zhen or Bai Mudan.

But it is very refreshing!

I did 3 infusions
7g/220ml glaspot 80C.
1: 1m
2: 1:30m
3: 2m

A good quality high mountain oolong.
Taste alot like Alishan oolong.

Did 10g / 200ml @ 95C
Three infusion

1: 1min
2: 2min
3: 3min

Three flavourfull cups.

I used 7g in a 220ml yixing pot.
Three infusions
1: 1min 90C
2: 2min 90C
3: 3min 90C

Malty slightly sweet. A bit of dark chocolate? A very slight astringency on the aftertaste.

A superb black tea.

Used 8g / 400ml in a glasspot.

The infusion is very pale yellow and smells very fresh.
The taste is mild and even. Refreshing and sweet with just a hint of astringency. A bit nutty and veggy?

Perfect in the evening. It compares to the best chinese whites BUT cant handle more then 2 infusions where the second infusion is kinda pale compared to the first cup.

My second go at this oolong.

This time i tried 9g for my 180ml kyusu.
Added boiling water for 1:30.

The result was interesting.
First i notice som viscosity, pretty smooth.
Then i notice a strong flavor of cinnamon that soon turns to astringency and a bit bitter aftertaste.

Usually in japanese blacks with little astringency i tend to try using quite alot of leaf to bring out the flavor. 8-10g / 180ml. But for this tea it was slightly to much. Next time i either use 7-8g leaf or lover time to 1:15.

Second infusion for 1min / boiling. A bit to short it seems. Cinnamon still there but a bit more fruity and much lighter then the first cup.
