I got this from Cameron B.! Thank you so much! I believe this is my first from Lupicia.
I’m excited about another melon tea after that Stash one. However, this one is an oolong. Lovely little knots, glossy and green with… what are these, pieces of melon candy? There are little green sugary things that the website makes no mention of. Neat!
Anyway, the leaves unroll long and whole, many with stems and a second leaf attached. They smell wonderful, like a faintly toasted oolong and delicious, ripe cantaloupe. Or honeydew. Maybe something in between. The flavor comes through with the aroma’s promise of melony goodness. The melon pairs beautifully with the warmer, woodier notes from the oolong. This is truly a treat. I will be ordering it some time in the future, without a doubt.
Flavors: Cantaloupe, Fruity, Honeydew, Melon
I’m glad you like it! One of the joys of finding favorite teas is then forcing other people to try them, too. :D
