While passing by, I was attracted by a chain beverage store "Qizhan Tea" that is not very common in Hsinchu. Although it is a chain store in Taipei, what is a little surprising is that they only accept cash, which is a bit unusual for a chain store in Taipei.
🍵 Shancui Oolong - $50
The top-quality oolong tea recommended by the store clerk. This tea has a rich aroma but a rather strong tea astringency. If you like bitter tea flavors, this one is definitely worth a try, but it’s a little steep for the price.
🌸 Xinyue Oolong - $35
Similar to the osmanthus oolong from other stores, this oolong tea has a lighter aroma and is added with the fragrance of osmanthus. The bitterness of tea is lighter, which is closer to personal taste.
🍎 Seven Red Extracts - $40
This black tea is paired with apple aroma, but the black tea aroma is slightly weak, but the apple aroma is extremely prominent. In terms of taste, there is a slight astringency of tea and no sour and sweet taste of apple. This combination is indeed a bit cognitively challenging, but it is quite interesting to me.
Generally speaking, if it is oolong tea, I personally recommend Xinyue Oolong. Not only is it more cost-effective, but the taste is also more in line with personal preferences. The Seven Red Essence is a special item worth trying, and it is definitely a novel drink worth exploring.
