Comment on Cheeky Lychee from David’s Tea by Nabela

Have you compared this to the Lychee Black Tea from The Republic of Tea? It’s the only one I’ve tried, and it found it quite enjoyable. But I’m intrigued by your review of David’s Tea, which I’ve not heard of personally.

Comment on Sweet Roast Green Tea (Dark Roast) from Mauna Kea Tea by liberteas

Usually, I’m pretty happy with the Steepster Select box, some months are better than others. For the box with this particular tea – which was April’s box (delivered in March), I was a little disappointed because it included honeybush and guayusa, both of which I’m familiar, but, then there was also this tea that was quite a pleasant surprise, so it kind of made up for the honeybush and guayusa. But the box that was delivered in April for this month … OH WOW! I’m beyond pleased with it. It’s probably the best box yet. And perhaps that’s the nicest thing about it, is that it’s a surprise every time I open the box.

Thanks for reading!

Comment on Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea from Teavivre by liberteas

While I would not consider myself an expert on how tea is processed/produced, I don’t think that this is why Milky Oolong has the milk taste. I believe that this is a natural flavor of this particular Oolong, which is a whole leaf tea produced in Taiwan.

I am involved in Tea Production both in Darjeeling (semi-fermented) and in Dooars(CTC). My personal observation with CTC production is that when the factory machinery and fermenting floor is not properly cleaned, due to excessive leaf intake and production imbalance) the teas tend to acquiry a milky taste/flavour which is mild and in the background. Could milky oolond also be seen to have acquired this taint during oolong production, like when the wet tea is being piled on during production of darker varieties of teas.
