Togo drank Shimen Bi Yu Oolong 2021 by Literárna Čajovňa

947 tasting notes

One of two teas from this new cultivar that I have tried recently. While neither was particularly great or unique, both seem to have a character of their own at least.

This one gives off aromas of raisins and gai lan straight away and cream with broccoli flowers after the rinse. The liquor has a light to medium body and a soft mouthfeel. Unfortunately, the taste is a bit weak. It is a mix of mineral, sweet and vegetal notes with a hint of banana. There is also a pleasant chest warming sensation throughout that I noticed.

Flavors: Broccoli, Cream, Flowers, Mineral, Raisins, Sweet, Vegetal

Preparation

205 °F / 96 °C 0 min, 30 sec 5 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

Hi, I am a researcher in math, physics and computer science. Apart from teas and mathematics, I enjoy sports and traveling, as well as music of all kinds. Connect at https://rateyourmusic.com/~Togo

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
