I got this tea from someone on steepster who was giving tea away to interested parties. I believe it comes from Life in a Teacup, but I'm not positive.
I recently acquired a small glass teapot (approximately 2 cups), and I've been using it as a fairness pitcher. I typically brew greens and oolongs in a cast iron teapot (I wish I had some yixing pots....), but today I decided to brew this in the glass pot. It's hard for me to compare the differences in taste between the two pots, especially since I've been drinking a lot of different oolongs recently. At some point I'll try brewing this side by side in the two pots.
This oolong is definitely heavier than some of the others I have right now. The flavor is stronger and a bit more earthy. This could be from the different brewing vessel though. More experimentation is required.....
and isn't that just too bad... ; )
