Took awhile to figure this one out, but the tea that made me say wow each time I had it in August was Tea Galleries Iron Warrior Monk.

Fave teas for August. I could almost say any of the Shincha OTTI, they were in the beginning of the month. More recent, Miyabi 2010 from O-Cha has been very good. However this cannot be a top fave 5 thing, ongoing, since Miyabi has had to be reformulatated by another source ... the old version was a victim of Fukushima. :cry:

And began the TD with ... MIYABI 2010 with the Mrs. Brewed stronger, a bit of an accident. But it was better this way. 5 grams leaf to 4 ounces water. Outstanding.

I have a new favorite Oolong - Wuyi Shan Red Cape. Love the smokiness of this tea.
