What is the best tasting energy drink?
In the wide and colorful world of energy drinks, very few lure us back with their taste. But which one's the best?
Tea has an exceptionally wide range of quality, just like everything else in the world. Tea makers can source the highest quality ingredients or they can cut corners in the pursuit of the almighty dollar. Either way, this is something we notice.
Low quality tea, for instance, tastes so bad that tea drinkers feel compelled to add spoonfuls of sugar, milk, or honey in order to make the drink palatable. For some, that’s fine and dandy, and they don’t think much of it. But for others, this is totally unacceptable.
Having to add additional ingredients to the tea you buy should be seen as an insult to the tea maker. It’s like taking an artist’s painting and adding a few more brushstrokes of your own and saying, “Ah, now it’s better.”
At least, these are the thoughts that pop and flash through our head when we open a bag of Moon Walk tea from Osulloc Tea and take a big whiff of its pleasant aroma.
Moon Walk tea in pyramid bags from Osulloc Tea smells rich and fruity!
You can tell how good a tea is simply by smelling it. Is it sharp and dry or smooth and sweet? Does it make you think of freshly cut grass or floral blossoms? Do the fruity notes make you salivate like a thirsty dog?
The manufacturer’s description of Moon Walk reads like a dream:
Silver moonlight and golden starlight undulate on the blue night sea of Jeju Island. The thrilling feeling inside the mind shimmers like a mirage in the desert while walking along the moon’s halo.
This blended tea provides a harmonious aroma of deep soft fermented tea resembling Jeju’s nighttime sea, a soft pear scent resembling the moon’s halo, and a sparkling sweet candy scent reminiscent of nighttime.
Osulloc Tea
For a bagged tea, the flavor will blow your mind. It does indeed taste like a warm summer night on a lush island near the sea when the flowers and trees are in full bloom.
Steeping a cup of Moon Walk for two minutes.
What gives Moon Walk its flavor is a post-fermented green tea blended with bits of Korean pear and star candy. It makes you question why the ‘eff can’t all teas be this good.
Osulloc Tea was established in 1979 with the goal to revitalize the Korean tea tradition. Most of their tea originates from the cultivated fields of Jeju Island, located just south of the Korean Peninsula.
Jeju Island is the most beautiful place in South Korea, like how Hawaii is for Americans. Known primarily for its beach resorts and volcanic landscape, the island is often used as a vacation spot for Koreans and foreign visitors alike. But its humid, subtropical climate, high annual precipitation, and volcanic ash soil make for a pristine environment for growing tea.
A soft blend of Korean pear and sweet honey makes you wish all tea tasted this good.
