This was a sample sent with my order. I think this is the one, as it’s a darker oolong than I’ve had. The leaves are a lovely dark colour. The taste was roasted and nutty with some sweetness. The floral tones was noticeable when I let it cool a bit. I made this in the gaiwan with a 15s rinse followed by two 40s drinkable steeps. Quite enjoyable.

Yep! That’s the one. I’m really happy that you enjoyed it. I’d say about 80% the coffeehouses, restaurants and delis we sell to offer this tea. It simply works so well almost any way that it is brewed. Thanks for writing up your experience! Grateful, Garret
And grateful to you Garret for including this as a sample. I’ve had a big red robe from somewhere else before and didn’t think it was anything special, so I wouldn’t have chosen to try this tea if you hadn’t included it as a sample.
