Taster’s Review:

Top Grade Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea from Fong Mong Tea is the tea of the moment here at The Sororitea Sisters!  First I have to say I am so honored and delighted to sample this tea for several reasons one being because it’s a Top Grade Tea and another reason being it’s an Oriental Beauty and how could I pass that up?

The leaves of this Top Grade Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea from Fong Mong Tea are thin, long, winding, and crispy.  It smells like what an Oriental Beauty is supposed to smell like.  Post infusion the tea liquor color is amazingly golden almost sun-kissed!  The aroma follows suit with a near natural citrusy type flavor to it.  This Top Grade Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea from Fong Mong Tea holds up to multiple infusions and morphs on your tongue with each additional infusion.  Nothing beats the first infusion for me personally because of the color, aroma, and flavor.  But the follow-up infusions are pretty impressive, too!

Top Grade Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea from Fong Mong Tea is a sipping tea.  I savored every moment of this one.  I was careful not to gulp because gulping would mean I was rushing thru it and that is something I didn’t want to do with this tea.  If there are tea moments you don’t want to end – this would be one of mine.  Top Grade Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea from Fong Mong Tea gets two thumbs up from me!

Taster’s Review:

This Oriental Beauty from Fong Mong Tea is truly outstanding.  Sweet, fragrant, and absolutely delicious!

The dry leaves are beautiful and whole, varying in color from silver to tan to chocolate brown.  They smell sweet and floral, with hints of fruit in the background.

The first flavor that I notice is the fruit note.  I usually do notice a peach-like flavor to Oriental Beauty Oolong teas, but here the flavor is so exquisitely pronounced.  So sweet and juicy, my mouth seems to water after each sip in anticipation for the next.   Delicious!

There is also a creaminess to this that melds beautifully with the peach-y flavors, as well as a delectable honey-esque undertone.  Once the palate acclimates to the sweetness of the cup, I start to notice other flavors.  This is a wonderfully complex cuppa, with hints of earth as well as a whisper of flower in the distance.

And of course, this tea offers many wonderful infusions.  I find that each subsequent infusion seems to become more enchanting.  The mouthfeel begins to lighten by the third infusion, and the flavors become smoother and less perspicuous, and yet, as the notes become more unified and less individual the tea becomes even more satisfyingly delicious.

This is one of the very best Oriental Beauty Oolong teas I’ve yet to taste – I highly recommend to all the Oolong enthusiasts out there.
