Choicest Oolong (Wu-Long) is a flavorful alternative to the higher priced Fancy grades, with much of the complexity and cup character. The bold leaves, with some silvery tips, produce a liquor with notes of dark grapes and hints of peach.

I bought this with a few other Formosa Oolongs to explore. To my taste, this was subtly earthy, with a rounded, almost fruity character. It has a light honeyed quality that makes it very satisfying to have on its own. No vegetal or mulchy notes. I found this to be a quality cup to enjoy on its own for a quiet moment. A favorite.
