2020 Gui Fei Oolong Premium Tea

This is one of the most delicious oolongs I've ever tasted! The flavor starts out with broad, sweet, mellow notes of bourbon vanilla mixed with the flesh of creamy tropical fruit, then finishes with a graceful, perfumed black tea depth, like an Assam or Darjeeling, with no bitterness or astringency. Like a wonderful, fruity royal milk tea, dancing lightly on the tongue to the last drop. Both playful and distinguished, this is a tea to be savored.

Bouquet: When terrain unfolds its impact literally magic happens. The terrain has such a huge impact on how a tea tastes in the end. The soil, the earth with all its minerals, trace elements, and surroundings like other plants, trees compose a symphony only an orchestra like mother nature could create with perfection. Taiwan might be the origin of this cultivar but the soil of Thailand has its own mystical magic when it comes to Taiwanese Thailand Oolongs. In an instant, a wave of deep sweet fruity notes is conquering your senses followed by fresh-baked croissant filled with apricot jam and fresh from the tree mandarins while a sweet floral bouquet with an atmosphere of a rose-like Dancong Oolong is adding the perfect sensual headnote to it.

Liquor: This buddy is so silky thick and creamy with a very distinct bourbon vanilla pudding sweetness to it while this highly delicious pudding is filled with Thai mango and passion fruit. It leaves a certain dark chocolate minty vibe within your mouth like After Eight which would describe it the best. Overall all those Thai grown Taiwanese variations I experienced by TeaSide really left me in awe because of their deep and full profile. I know their original Taiwanese grown pedants (many of them) and it might be the ecosystem or the terrain as I mentioned before but those Thai ones really manage to impress way more with such a deep and unique profile. If you wanna fuse this buddy into three aspects for me it would be: Dancong meets Oriental Beauty meets Multivitamin Juice. What a marvelous experience. Highly recommended.

7.5 grams / teapot 160 ml. Brewed with boiling water, the steeps are short for a few seconds with a hold of up to 15-30 in the later ones.
Tea conquers from the first moment of acquaintance. The aroma and taste are ripe peaches, strawberries, something else undetectable, soft creamy caramel and apple candy.
Everything is so subtle and complex at the same time, and it does not seem to me that there is such an artificial flavor.
The tea is long, calmly withstood 2 liters and did not end. When overexposed, peach seed astringency appears, but it does not spoil the tea.
Valera, this is a very successful find! Practically, for me personally, a reference oolong.

Never have I tasted a blossom flavored tea as this. True gift for it's quality
