THAILAND HIGH MOUNTAIN OOLONG TEAS
SPRING 2007
200 gram (7.4 ounces) vacuum-sealed packages
Clear
Mind / Qing Xin Oolong Tea $15
A nice, very-close-to-green, refreshing Oolong-- the Thailand version of Formosa
High Mountain Oolong. Fairly well-oxidized, but very lightly roasted, it brews a distinctly green brew with the substance that this original oolong plant is renowned for. The finish is clean and stimulating,
with enough subtle sweetness and astringency to produce the classic "gan" aftertaste.
And the perky, clarifying effects of this tea are undeniable.
NOTE: The above tea selection is named according to the varieties or strains of tea plants from which it is produced, thus we have chosen to use the Chinese pinyin terms in conjunction with the loose English translations.
