How is it possible for the tea tree to produce so many subtle flavors and aromas. The oolong we are having today has the aroma of a wild honey, sweet but also floral, but the taste has a hint of hot rocks a mineral taste, and of course the bitter and lightly woody taste of the tea itself.
This isn't an herbal tea. HOW does this happen?

This is the kind of experience that makes people weird about tea. The aroma and taste are shaped by the plant, how it's grown, where it is grown, how it is harvested, how it's processed, how it's packed and how it is stored.
All of these variables make every tea different, and every tea you own changes as each day passes because they age into new and unexpected flavors.
The possibilities are endless.
