Gongfu!
Early morning yancha session because toasty, roasty oolong seemed perfect for the overnight cold snap and heavy snowfall…
This tea is delicious with an immediate and consistent heavy roast and mineral quality that reminded me of charred barley, coffee grounds, and fire roasted chestnuts with a pretty peanut heavy finish. After a couple infusions I started to get more of a building stonefruit note that leaned a little plum in taste. With floral hints throughout, the overall profile was one of warmth and comfort – a perfect oolong for the morning!
