My samples from Teavivre came today! I was not expecting such a large bag, but I think I’m going to be very happy for it. I couldn’t resist brewing one up right away.
This smells delightfully fruity both dry and brewed. The taste is much more subtle than I expected from the smell, but it’s delicious and I wouldn’t change it. The taste that comes first is actually the oolong, with a freeze-dried strawberry taste coming afterward. The oolong itself is green but has a little bit of the roastiness I would expect in a darker oolong. The mouthfeel is amazingly juicy, and I’m liking it more with each sip. This isn’t a fruit oolong that whacks you over the head with the fruit flavor, but everything blends together in a delicious way.
I love getting samples from Teavivre. Something about the neat packaging makes me happy, haha :)
