Detailed Description
This exquisite oolong comes to us from Northern Vietnam, where some of the old tea plants are still partially grown wild. Local villagers traditionally process these leaves and the resulting tea is unique and delicious.

The large leaves resemble a black tea, however, the brewed cup is distinctively oolong in character. The aroma is bright with slight spice and floral notes. The amber cup imparts a toasty aftertaste with a slight honey sweet flavor.

Brew tea at 212º - steep for 4 minutes.

Remarkable tea 5/13/2020
For me this falls in between a black and an oolong, darker and richer than a typical oolong but mellower than a black. My dad used to taste supermarket and restaurant and even local tea purveyors’ oolongs and say that oolongs just weren’t what he remembered and I just thought his taste had faded with age. I also thought those oolongs were kind of boring myself. This magical tea makes me think he just never found a source of really rich oolong again.
