This tea looks pretty in the pot. The long rolled pale to medium green leaves stretch and twist so wildly around each other, a teaspoon or two takes up a lot of space. The leaves are mostly large whole and broken leaves and stems, and the liquid is a light springtime green. The aroma is on the gentler side of other oolongs: slightly brothy, slightly green. The taste is consistent with the scent; this is like oolong Jr. This is a tea to consider if you like your oolongs to taste subtle and light. This is a relatively user friendly tea, thought the oolong scent is unmasked and may be too different for the new oolong drinker to appreciate. For people who are already familiar with oolong and favor strong flavors, this may be too plain to hold their interest.
