Whether they actually have the effect they were developed to have or not, I have really enjoyed the GABA oolongs that I have had thus far. This is the second I tried from TTC—the first being the (not deep) baked GABA. I have been appreciating baked and roasty oolongs more and more lately, so I was excited to try this one last Friday.

These rolled leaves had a sweet, baked smell that intensified upon being doused with boiling water. The liquor came out a deep brown and smooth, with a roasted, sweet, nutty flavor. The roasty notes intensified in the following steep, without drowning out the sweetness. Overall, this was a simple, enjoyable experience, and I’ll look forward to having more of this soon.
