Tasters Review:
First…Good Morning & Merry Christmas!
I am going to spend some more time with this specific oolong but here are my first findings and I will say I am very pleased with this tea!
Royal Phoenix Yellow Stone Oolong Tea has a slight woodsy aroma and on top of that a more charcoal type aroma with hints of fruit…altho I can’t tell you what type of fruit…and it’s more of a rind or skin of the fruit than the actual ‘meat’ or ‘flesh’.
As for the taste…it’s VERY different! Again, taste-wise, I can taste the fruit comparison but it’s more of a rind/zest or skin type fruit taste than the actual fruit itself, I suppose. There is a slight drier-wine type taste so maybe the fruit I am tasting could be comparable to grape-skin type taste, maybe!
The more I sip it – the more I like it. And the more I am thinking of a wine comparison. There seem to be hints of strawberry…I’m thinking more like the top of the strawberry – like up top by the leaves and stem rather than a plump juicy strawberry.
This is GOOD because it’s interesting and unique and I am enjoying my cuppa!
I hope you are all blessed with a nice cup of tea today!
Happy Holidays from your SororiTEA Sisters!
