I have to break up the sheng sessions once in a while, so today I go for this semi-ball rolled Taiwan oolong I got from
Camellia Sinensis last year. It looks like a light roasted example. The dry large rolled leaf gives off a strong aroma of melon, apricot and maybe a hint of vanilla and spice. I bring out my small 80ml duani teapot I got from
Pu-erh.sk.
It is a very nice looking pot as you can see.The liquor is light yellow but the infusions are strong with a heavy sent of fruit and vanilla.

The liquor really coats the entire mouth with strong flavors of minerals, fruits and sweet buttery flowers. It has a great long lasting mouthfeel which slightly numbs the tongue.
The leaves are big, full and quite thick showing a good picking. Overall a strong full flavored tea full of enjoyment. The only bad thing is, these good Taiwan oolongs are getting very expensive, so I drink sparingly.
