I love the white swirling mist that dances on the surface of my tea.

Featuring some mystery medium roasted yancha (that's why you always label your tea tins).

2022 Da Wang Feng Shi Ru (aka "Rock Milk") Rock Oolong from Ho Yum Tea has changed a lot since I last tried it this summer. Still has the fragrance I remember, but the mineral/rock aspect seems much stronger in the flavor. A great tea, but not a tea you would give to someone as their first rock oolong.

Alas, this dose of "shuixian" is the last of the 2023 rock oolong samples from last year's tea club. Well, onward...

I've been craving yancha lately. This 2009 tieluohan from Wuyi Origin is hitting the spot.

2023 "jin guan yin" from White2Tea is my style Rock Oolong, medium-heavy roast and oxidation. Chewy.
