It’s been a while since I’ve had a good oolong so, I was excited to get this tea from Spirit Tea.
I have to first point out the tea leaves: these are big, healthy, full leaves. They’re so big, they didn’t fit in my tea ball infuser…I had to use my big infuser cup. Impressive!
I was very careful to steep this tea according to the package instructions so that I could experience this tea exactly as it was described. I can’t decide if I taste melon notes, but I did get a fruity sensation; more of an essence, actually. What I did get, as described on the package, was a toasted marshmallow flavor. It was the flavor that lingered after each sip; a slightly sweet, “fluffy” flavor.
I’ve been reviewing a lot of herbals, fruits, and caffeine free teas lately. I was ready for just “tea” and this was a great option for that change.
If you’re not familiar with oolong, it has some amazing benefits. It’s rumored to fight some serious health conditions like cancer, heart disease, and obesity. It will also give you a caffeinated boost when you need it; it’s a great alternative for your morning coffee.
Spirit Tea is serious when it comes to quality tea. Visit their site to find this and other amazing teas and, watch for reviews on some of their other amazing brews.
