Green, Sencha okumidori
some random Chinese oolong
White, bai hao yin zhen

Edit: The oolong was pretty good. Mildly floral and fruity. The okumidori was just as good as I expected. Worth the price IMO.

    A few years ago, I went gaiwan shopping. I wanted a new one, because the old one was the cheapest and ugliest starter gaiwan you can find.

    One of the local tea stores had a nice selection, and I found exactly what I was looking for. While I was there, I also bought one of those glass pitchers and a metal sieve. The store keeper seemed quite pleased with the deal, so she just gave me a little bag of oolong.

    This one was a bit special though. It tasted very fruity and smelled like flowers. Can’t remember the name of that thing though.

      I can relate. I have a few teas like “it was very tasty but which one was it?”. Now I maintain notes for stuffs like this: link, name, more or less accurate date and a comment with my thoughts about it
