Review of Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea

The aroma of this oolong is sweet and creamy with notes of fresh vegetation and lilacs. There is also a hint of nuttiness. Once it is brewed the aroma is still really sweet and creamy but it also has notes of green beans and a tiny hint of chestnut.
The taste is really sweet and really creamy, delightfully so! It is an unusual oolong since I have never had one (unflavored) that is that sweet. After the initial sweetness there are notes of vegetal and an aftertaste of buttery chestnut.
On the second steep the aroma takes on the aroma of artichoke along with the creamy, sweet goodness. The taste is still very sweet but less creamy and has more vegetal notes. I certainly really enjoyed this tea!
