green oolong (fall '24)

This year’s fall green oolong is particularly umami. It’s unusually smooth for a fall harvest, thanks in large part from the good weather. When brewed, the broth is juicy and tastes like vegetables with the slightest bit of bitterness at the finish. It has some floral undertones, and is quite sweet when the hot broth cools down. It’s truly the child of 2023’s winter oolong and 2024’s spring oolong - not too vegetal, not too floral.
