This semi-oxidized tea varietal has a very distinctive “buttery” characteristic to its liquor that is the result of a unique combination of harvest-timing coupled with processing technique. The leaves are selected from tea plants growing in the mountains of Fujian province, China at elevations between 1600 and 4000 feet above sea-level. The plucking must then occur only on a morning following a precipitous drop in temperature in comparison to the day before. The hand-picked leaves are then removed to the tea factory where they are carefully oxidized in climate controlled rooms, steamed and rolled, then dried and packed for the enjoyment of the lucky few tea enthusiast that have access to this rare treat.
Company description not available.
This has a truly unique bouquet and mouthfeel in the oolong family. It delivers a robust aromas of orchid, coconut and fresh herbs. The mouthfeel lives up to the name with a round and smooth viscosity. I believe this tea is a good introductory tea to people who are just acquainting themselves with oolong. Ultimately, it is a style of tea that is boisterous and very easy to drink. The connoisseurs may find it too straight forward. I tend to enjoy this tea in the morning but move on to something more subtle by afternoon such as Oriental Beauty or Baozhongs.
