No recommendation solely for the price.. Also, keep in mind that I brew my tea much weaker than most people here.
I normally drink MPO blended with Teavana’s Youthberry, but tonight I decided to brew a straight pot of oolong.
First steep has a nice floral aroma with faint honey tones. Starts off with a smooth, distinct orchid taste, followed by a slight vegetal note, before finally ending with a faint, nutty astringency.
Second steep brings out the oolong’s buttery mouthfeel and leaves very little of the astringency the first steep had. The orchid is still there, but I taste more of the nuttiness than before. I definitely like the second steep better than the first.
It took me a little while to remember exactly what that nutty flavor is, but I finally got it… chestnut. The aftertaste reminds me of delicious chestnuts.
Flavors: Chestnut, Floral, Honey, Orchid, Vegetal
