There are "light" and "dark" oolongs, and this is a "dark" oolong in the taiwan style known as "Formosa" which is a sweet, smooth tasting tea with large twisted leaves.
The oolong base tastes naturally toasty and nutty, and the almond flavor reminds me of sweet marzipan. A simple and comforting cup of tea.
