I haven’t had a vegetal, high note oolong in a while! Many thanks to Youngest for the share.

Ashman and I polished this off at breakfast. Resteeps well. Aroma at the outset of steeping is definitely good old Southern style greens like turnip greens or collards. It doesn’t taste like collard liquor to me, though. Is that a regional term or does everyone call it that?

Mouthfeel is smooth and light. Taste is light floral.

Bio

I am a music teacher, tutor, and former homeschool mom (25 years!) who started drinking loose leaf tea about fifteen years ago! My daughters and I have tea every day, and we are frequently joined by my students or friends for “tea time.” Now my hubby joins us, too. His tastes have evolved from Tetley with milk and sugar to mostly unadorned greens and oolongs.

We have learned so much history, geography, and culture in this journey.

My avatar is a mole in a teacup! Long story…
