Alishan Charcoal Light Roast Oolong

Tasting Notes:
-Sweet Apple
-Orchid
-Bready
-Pine
-Caramel

Dry tea leaves are bright green, and smell of chlorophyll.  First round of brewing brings out a strong floral flavor and fragrance.  The tea liquor is a beautiful amber color. This tea is already starting to impart a long lingering aftertaste; the flavor starts floral, and moves to the deeper taste of orchids. The second of brewing imparts an additional woodsiness of mountain forests.  Think freshly sprung bamboo shoots and old growth pine trees. The florality of the first round grows sweeter. This sweetness makes the tea liquor seem almost thick in the mouth. The fragrance of the second round is sweet, woodsy, and has an undercurrent of grass to it. The third round enhances all the notes of this tea.  The woodsiness, florality, and taste of orchids are especially pronounced here. The aftertaste is very sweet, and lasts for many, many minutes.
