I bought an ounce of this tea because of the great reviews and my general love for the tea from Tea Ave. The first time I tried it, I wasn’t sure I liked it, but I had it again last night and changed my mind! It’s pretty good! I think maybe the first time I was expecting something different and the floral note wasn’t hitting me right. Last night, I decided that it tasted like floral custard. Sweet, buttery, floral, smooth and delicious! I’m glad I gave it another chance. I usually have to try something twice before deciding that I don’t like it. Fortunately, this one stepped up its game!

I think that’s how I felt about the Osmanthus oolong. Maybe I had too high of expectations. It was good but I need to have it again to really get a feel for it. Haven’t tried this one yet but I ordered some with my last order.
I’m going to have to give this one a try. It sounds lovely.

Ubacat Try with suggested temp. Perhaps you will be able to bring out the flavor more this way :)
Ubacat – definitely try the osmanthus again. Sometimes all it takes is another try. I love the osmanthus one, but I use only about 3-4 grams in my gaiwan and steep it at the recommended temperature and steep times.
