Category: Oolong-te
Ett exceptionellt 'mörkt' oolong-te, de mångfärgade bladen av vårt lösa Eastern Beauty, eller Oriental Beauty, ger en len, doftande kopp med toner av aprikos och honung. Denna karakteristiska sötma kommer från insekter som biter bladen strax före skörd – en naturlig process som gör detta te inte bara gott, utan verkligen unikt. Återinfusion upp till 5 gånger.
The dry leaves alone are a sight—those multi-colored twists practically glow in the tin. First steep hit me with that honeyed apricot sweetness right away, and it stayed smooth through five infusions without turning bitter. Exactly the fragrant, calming cup I was hoping for on a slow afternoon.
The dry leaves are gorgeous—multi-colored, almost speckled—and they brew into such a smooth, fragrant cup. That honey sweetness lingers nicely on the tongue, and the apricot hint is subtle but really comes through as it cools.
The dry leaves are gorgeous—multi-colored, like little flecks of autumn—and they brew up a cup that's impossibly smooth. I kept sniffing the empty mug afterward; that apricot note lingers in the best way.
