\n<\/a><\/p>\n

Type:\u00a0 Oolong<\/p>\n

Region:\u00a0 China<\/p>\n

Bought At:\u00a0 Adagio.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Review:<\/p>\n

The last in my maestro set #2 from adagio, Wuyi Da Hong Pao is the first oolong tea I have tried.\u00a0 Somewhere between black and green tea, oolong should be interesting.\u00a0 Wuyi Da Hong Pao smells a lot like most greens, but with a little bit darker, almost roasted touch.\u00a0 The taste was mellow and warm.\u00a0 It definitely fits right between green and black teas, with a strong taste but a nice smooth finish.\u00a0 The flavors are woody and roasted; the aftertaste is long lasting, but not unpleasant.\u00a0 A good tea, I wish I had more experience with oolong teas so that I had something to compare it to, but I guess that will come with time.<\/p>\n

My Rating:
\n3.5 \/ 5<\/p>\n
