"Sweet Ginseng" Lan Guiren Oolong Tea (Taiwan)

My first Ginseng

This is my first experience with Ginseng Tea and I must say it was quite pleasant. The leaves opened up fully after around 4 120ml gaiwan brews at 200°f. The taste definitely gets sweeter as your session continues. Long lasting flavor. Gives me a little buzz on my tongue which I enjoyed. Will definitely be purchasing again. Aroma is also very pleasant.

Surprised!

Purchased a small amount to try and didn't taste earthy at all. Was curious to try since me and my dad dug ginseng root and dried it for sale when I was a kid (in the US). Had a hint of a typical oolong but the taste was pleasant and not strong. Could easily drink either hot or cold. Can't put my finger on the taste but is light and smooth with no bitterness. I don't boil my water and steep for less than a minute. Quickly placed an ordered for more since these types of teas sell out once I find the one I enjoy. Worth a try, as I found it more pleasurable to drink than milk oolong that has a strong citrus taste.

Love this

Leaves a long lasting sweetness on your breath, a very enjoyable tea
