Organic Dong Ding Oolong, Medium Roast

The newest addition to our collection of single-source high mountain organic oolong is here!  We used our Organic Mountain, following our philosophy of only using the finest leaf as a base for all our roasts, and crafted it using the classic DongDing-style method.  This results in bold, unmistakable roasted oolong flavor, with hints of complexity here and there to pleasantly surprise when least expected.

We detected cocoa as the centerpiece note in an even roast with just a hint of woody sweetness.  The aftertaste is honeyed with hints of flowers on the tip of the tongue.  The nose recalls pine and put us in a festive mood, recalling holiday wreaths.  While this oolong is exceptionally hardy and can produce a flavorful and balanced liquor while using up to boiling temperature water, we suggest using 95°c to draw out the most multilayered experience from this tea.  Enjoy!
