This tea was surprising in how clean and crisp it is for an oolong verging on a black tea. When putting the leaves in a warm gaiwan, could have sworn it was roasted from the heavy oxidation. The earthiness was light, worked well as subsequent infusions had different flavors develop, all with a beautiful rose floral note which tied everything together. Got seven infusions and could have kept going with it, no bitterness at all. A unique and excellent one which will be on my next order for sure.
