I’ve only recently delved into the world of oolong tea. It didn’t take me long to realize I prefer oolong over black tea, especially when it comes to flavored blends. Oolongs seem to have a full taste while still being mild and never having a bitter bite. I haven’t had a bad experience yet with these teas.
The dragon pearl oolong seems to be lighter in color than most other oolongs I’ve tried (though I’m no expert). The little balls of tea unfurl into full leaves, nearly filling the pot.
The taste is slightly green and leafy. Its mild and has no astringency whatsoever, making it light and refreshing. There is a slight aftertaste that I can’t quite describe, but its pleasant and not at all off-putting.
I probably won’t buy more of this tea, but thats because I prefer flavored teas, and would rather spend my money on a flavored oolong. I also think I prefer the more malty oolongs to the greener tasting ones. This really isn’t a bad tea, its just not the one for me.
