The dry leaves have an aroma of whole grain bread.
The golden infusion has a toasty aroma with brown bread notes and a hint of minerals. The taste is toasty and sweet with notes of brown bread, nut shell, and whole grains.
This was a very tasty oolong with the liquor color deepening as the leaves unfurl. The flavor was reminiscent of a breakfast cereal from my childhood. For the purposes of this tea review, I prepared the tea with a cupping set. However, I found the best results when preparing this gongfu-style using more leaf in a smaller brewing vessel with a higher water temperature and shorter steeping time. Color deepens as the leaves unfurl.
