Name: Wuyi Da Hong Pao Type:\u00a0 Oolong<\/p>\n Region:\u00a0 China<\/p>\n Bought At:\u00a0 Adagio.com<\/a><\/p>\n Price:\u00a0 $29 for maestro sampler set (4 teas)<\/p>\n First Impressions:\u00a0 Dark Leaves, roasted smell<\/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:
