I think I finally have the word to describe that mix of fruity and tangy present in unroasted GABA oolong — mangosteen — a combination of wild strawberry, lychee, pineapple, peach and vanilla sugar. GABA teas’ typical squashiness is there, delicate like a squash blossom rather than lightly meaty like the flesh. GABA processing generally produces a tea with great longevity and this leaf is no exception. Excellent GABA tea. Very clean with a lingering aftertaste.
