Adagio: Anteadote Organic Oolong
Anteadote Organic Oolong
I can’t say I know too many people that actually know what Oolong truly is. For those of you that are new to tea, Oolong is tea (camellia sinensis) just as much as black, green, or white. In fact, many of the most popular Oolongs steep to reveal a much fuller and greener tea leaf than green and black teas. I like steeping Oolong for people so they can connect to what tea really is – a leaf. Often, Oolong is loosely described as being in-between a green and black tea. In other words, it is processed using a particular method to where the leaves are semi-oxidized. To me, some of the more enjoyable teas I’ve had over the past few years have been Oolongs. Do not be afraid to try an Oolong if you haven’t. It has such a clean, fresh, slightly floral, nutty, fruity, and lasting flavor that creates for a unique tea experience with a high value.
As far as Anteadote’s effort to make an unsweetened iced tea from organic oolong – excellent work. I really enjoyed this. Every sip was rewarding. This was so much better than their green tea for me. It was identifiable from the get-go. When I opened the bottle, I could smell the freshness that was captured during production. I was immediately reminded of the many loose leaf Oolongs I’ve enjoyed over the years. I know my friends and family would enjoy this tea. It’s going to take a lot of bloggers and marketers to get the word out that Oo”long” is not short on flavor and value. The word “crisp” comes to mind as I’m drinking this. I’m simultaneously being relaxed as I refresh with this beverage. I had to pace myself not to drink the entire bottle before I took a few notes. I was impressed with Anteadote’s Organic Oolong.
