Had BTTC’s Misty mountain oolong for the first time today.

Nose - dry leaves: floral

Nose - wet leaves: buttered vegetables, hot milk, floral

Liquor: smooth, floral, milky, slight vegetal and honey notes

The flavour was decently strong and there was absolutely no adstringency or bitterness. There were some stems in the tea, but that’s to be expected considering it’s machine picked. Otherwise the leaves were pristine and almost completely intact. Would make a fantastic daily drinker if you like gaoshancha.
