Company description not available.
Pretty decent! Not the best, but a solid oolong to buy on a budget. Warm, autumnal, ever so slightly caramelized. However, it is relatively plain, mild, one-note, and somewhat tannic. I prefer to drink this tea with honey or brown sugar, and use it in a peach resin tong sui.
Flavors: Brown Rice, Caramelized Sugar, Dry Grass, Sweet, Warm Grass, Tannic
This is the most affordable and plain tasting oolong I’ve had. This is what I would expect to get when asking for hot tea or oolong tea at a restaurant. I’ll keep it in the cupboard for times of a good tea shortage.
Flavors: Earthy
Several of your “advent attack plans” have been aimed at revisiting teas that have been neglected for a while. That inspired me to make a cup of Joy Luck Oolong—first thing in the morning, no less. This wouldn’t be bad for a beginner oolong—inexpensive; can take longer, sloppier steeping, and is pleasantly toasty (somewhere between Wonder Bread and melba toast) with a little light plummy, fruity bit in the background.
For an inexpensive oolong, it does hit the spot~. You can brew it to your own desire, more mild or stronger. I love the unique taste of Oolong, an earthy, full-body concoction that brings me some peace any time I drink it. I have tried it both hot and cold, but I have to say the hot is better becuase there is more flavor than it’s cold counterpart.
Flavors: Bitter, Earth, Sweet, Sweet, Warm Grass, Wet Wood, Wood
The directions on the can recommend rinsing the leaves with hot water before steeping. I use 3-4 tsp for 1 qt. of water and steep in a ceramic pot for 1 – 1 1/2 minutes, first pot. I reuse as needed with longer steep times. I bring the water to a boil and let it sit for a minute before pouring.
