Dong Ding Taiwan High Mountain Oolong
Taiwan is indeed famous for their oolongs, but in particular a certain robust well-roundedness that is present in all decent grades of tea and up. A similar form of taste balance costs a lot of money in the world of Tie Guan Yin teas, whereas a good Dong Ding from Taiwan in our opinion holds up amazingly well. This particular picking delivers an orchid-like fragrance and slight green infusion that really makes it stand out from our other oolong selections. Certainly a wonderful and delicious treat!
