Our Mi Xiang Honey GABA Oolong has neat, tightly rolled leaves that are about 70% oxidised and very lightly roasted. The bright amber liquor has a fruity raisin aroma, while the wet leaves give off a more mineral scent. The taste is particularly smooth, with a predominately fruity profile as expected from a GABA oolong. The Mi Xiang aspect adds more complexity as well as perceived sweetness to the flavour. There are notes of sugared tart plums, spicy honey and sweet raisins. The flavour gives way to a more mineral aspect on the tart, slightly toasty aftertaste. The finish is lasting with the usual GABA tartness but also slightly floral and spicy honey notes.
We suggest brewing at 90°C for 3 minutes according to your taste. It can be brewed more than 3 times depending on your preference. For best results, brew gongfu style.
