I'm normally not a fan of this style of tea, but this one was my favorite yet, probably because it was atypical. Like many of Rishi's teas, this one ventured out into a bit edgier, bolder territory of flavor and aroma that I found to be more interesting and enjoyable.
Brews a darker-than-normal color. Aroma is similar to other teas of this style, but with a noticeable skunky quality.
Very pricey, however. I found this tea interesting as a tea, but I don't think it offers good value to someone with my tastes. This may be my favorite Bai Hao / Oriental Beauty oolong yet, but I still prefer a number of other of Rishi's offerings, or oolongs of other styles from any number of other tea companies.
