Enjoyed this tea this morning in my yixing-lined travel tea tumbler. I’ve kept it pretty exclusive to use with oolong teas, but this is the first real hearty oolong it’s seen. To begin, I really just love the flavor of tea when it has that yixing addition in general. And this yixing has seen some nice ginseng oolongs, so that was slightly added to the mix, mostly with an after-taste mouth feel.
As ever, this tea is delicious and I’m eager to taste it again in future!
Dinah- it is funny you mention spiciness in Red Robe, because I’ve never noticed it. Now I’m anxious to try. Have I missed the spicy notes all along?
