Brand: David's Tea
Primary Type: Oolong
Dry Scent: Warm and buttery, with the sharp scent of oolong tea. There is a sharp green-ness to this underlying the richness of the ginseng, and a faint gingeryness as well, although very mild.
Steeping Time: 5 min
Steeped Flavour: Sweet, smooth. There is a strong taste of Oolong but not it's objectionable. Really, this tea is quite lovely. Actually, the level of sweetness is surprising, but I'm presuming it must come from the ginseng. There is a rich butteryness to it as well, which I'm not used to encountering with oolongs. Really a very soothing drink, and you can almost taste the health benefits as you drink it.
Food/Drink Pairings: This would probably go well with most main courses, but it's just sweet enough to accompany a cheese plate as well, or even some less-sweet desserts. You could drink this any time of day although it is fairly caffeinated so keep that in mind.
Rating out of Six Tails:
5/6
