OOLONG TEA

 
幽靜台北林巷間步入莊謐的和式庭院，品茗一日古味的褐茶與和菓子的甜蜜。
綠庭前的紙窗透出白光，靜坐握杯讓白瓷的溫度沁入掌心。
 
傳統百年老木下熱水流出，蒸餾出乾茶的澀香。
口腔間流轉的棕色茶清餘韻， 木架上的茶餅；
店長端上一盤甜點與蜂蜜蛋糕，米香與甜豆與蜜味，陶碟上的糕點。
 
午後時光，烏龍茶與小份的甜美。

Between the trees, scent of tea and beans waves in from the quiet japanese courtyard in a tranquil Taipei alley.
 
The sun beams through the papered window, under the aged wood flow of hot water brews dried tea leaf into stringency and earthy benevolence. The clear bitter brown twists an aftertaste in your mouth. 
 
The old man presents you plated japanese confectionery on ceramic, honeyed cake, sweet grinded rice and sugared beans thickens the air and washes the bitterness. 
 
Portioned sweetness and oolong sophistication, the afternoon delight.
