Every time I open up these packages, I forget that there is a tea bag within. They look fancy, but each bag I’ve taken out so far has ripped in some fashion. Makes me feel less bad about wasting them by cutting them open.
No dry aroma. Generally, I don’t expect much aroma from a tea bag, though.
The dry leaf is decent-looking. Very small rolled leaves. You can tell it’s a roasted oolong by how brown it is.
Flavor: Roast notes, a bit of charcoal and toast, but also plasticky? Plaster… Something unpleasant is sitting on my tongue.
The wet leaf aroma is musty, slightly wet charred wood, and a bit of deep forest berries.
