roundness in the mouth Explanation: Definitely not my area of expertise, but I do follow an active interest in culinary fields and am sure that I have heard 'roundness in the mouth' used on more than one occasion. Example sentence(s):

round, smooth mouthfeel Explanation: Tea tasting terms are very similar to some wine tasting terms. see: "Full: Describes a good combination of colour and a round, smooth mouthfeel. " http://www.home-herb-garden.com/teaterms.html "China Milky Oolong Tea that has a silky, milky, sweet taste that’s weird – but beguiling – and has a round mouthfeel." http://www.steenbergs.co.uk/blog/2010/03/enjoying-tasting-oo...

mellow in the mouth Explanation: A mellow, nicely rounded taste in the mouth ttp://www.adagio.com/decaf/decaf_apricot.html Soft, mellow mouthfeel, succulent flavor and balanced astringency. http://thegreenteareview.blogspot.com/2008/12/mellow-monks-b... It's just as mellow in the mouth, but lives in the aftertaste, inviting you to sit back, close your eyes, and enjoy the extended experience. http://www.greysteas.co.uk/acatalog/Ceylon_tea.html The teas are beautifully floral and produce liquor that is light and mellow in the cup, with an aroma redolent of peaches and apricots. http://www.imperialteas.co.uk/tea/darjeeling/autumnal-garden... Selimbong was founded in 1886 and is widely known for its fully aromatic, mild, mellow and fruity autumnal teas. |

Reference: For what it's worth... Reference information: Here is an existing English description of this particular tea: "This Darjeeling has it all. The pedigree of certifications is only the beginning! The aroma of the dry leaf is exquisite and carried well into the cup. The golden liquor is bright with exceptional balance and mouthfeel. Nutty and woodsy flavors abound in this excellent cup of tea. Certified Organic Origin: India Darjeeling" http://www.kopiusteas.com/Selimbong_FTGFOP1_p/toib_1109.htm |
