formosa pouchong

“ Formosa Pouchong tea has garnered praise for its light, floral, and buttery characteristics, making it a favorite among tea enthusiasts. Notable for its smooth and relaxing properties, it's celebrated for easing tension and enhancing mood. With a palette of flavors that include hints of orchids, jasmine, and even a subtle, pleasing saltiness, its complexity is admired. The tea's aroma is captivating before steeping, enchanting with scents akin to jasmine and tuberose. Its gentle, greenish hue upon brewing does not diminish its profound taste profile, which evolves through multiple steepings, revealing layers of floral, fruity, and honeyed notes, alongside a distinctive buttery mouthfeel. The consensus is clear: this Taiwanese oolong tea, perfect for savoring in tranquility, is a must-try, offering a nuanced, sip-worthy experience that appeals to both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike. ”

“ This was my first purchase with Adagio. Typically I buy teas from Teavana but I knew there had to be better stuff out there. I think I may have found my new tea store. First off, the tea smells amazing as it steeps, very orchid and similar to a Monkey Picked Oolong. The taste is delightfully light, creamy, and yes, as one other reviewer said, a hint salty. In a good way! ”

“ Very smooth and buttery. There also are floral flavors in the aftertaste. It is a well rounded tea and it improves my mood. It seems to compliment lots of things. The only minus is that if i eat another strong flavor before drinking this, i cant taste it. ”

“ A lovely lightly oxidized oolong tea to sit enjoy and savor. After steeping I indulged in breathing in the lovely floral aroma wafting from the teapot. The liquor was a yellowish light green. The tea has a fresh taste,flavors of lilac and a hint of fruitiness, similar to pear. With a buttery mouth feel and a light astringent finish. This tea held up for a few steeps. A very nice cup of pouchong. ”

“ Used 3 grams and steeped with 195 degree water for 3 minutes using 6oz of water. This tea is very aromatic and has a lovely floral sweetness and a crisp finish. Very nice! Not sure whether I like this or fujian ti kuan yin better. Both are GREAT! ”
