From Steepster

This tea is known as “Lan Gui Ren” meaning “Lady Orchid” and is a favorite among women, men, and children. Layers of ginseng and licorice powder are blended with fine fujian-style oolong for a sweet brew and an intoxicating aroma that holds up steep after steep.

An Ode to Tea challenge #2– L

This is ancient! I’m sure most of you are sick of me saying something along those lines. It’s sealed, fine and only a sample though. From TheLastDodo a long time ago, thank you! I have had this before. Much of the same. Not sure if I love this type of flavor and why mask an oolong with it? I can never taste the actual oolong, so it seems a bit of a waste. But I guess the ginseng is good for energy.

This was a beautiful tea. The nugget shape was intriguing, and the smell was lush. I didn’t taste any actual licorice, but the sweetness was definitely there. I wish this one was available in the store.

Okay, I am really surprised by this tea. I do not normally like teas with added flavors but this tea is nicely prepared and the licorice flavor is subtle, yet it blends extremely well with the oolong. The dry leaves look a little strange at first but finally start to open up after the 3rd steeping—instructions say 3 steepings, but I went to 5 with good flavor.

So glad I joined Steepster Select. I NEVER would have purchased this tea independently. Now, I definitely plan to get some!
