After we successfully made our traditional oolong in Gaofeng, it is inevitable to see us making a black tea out of this plantation. The environment of this plantation is at about 1500 meters and is quite remote, so we were not able to get any proper signal in the mountain when the video was recorded.
For this black tea we were at the scene again to ensure its quality is what we want to offer. We could, of course, stay at home and simply let the factory do the work since black tea processing is relatively simple compared to oolong tea, but doing so will result a higher failure rate. As a result, this tea is again finished under the watch of us with a tea that we are very satisfied with.
This is a very elegant and calm tea. If the oolong from spring is like a bright sunshine to the mind, this is a tea of night. It delivers a subtle water pear aroma inside your mouth with a finish of ice sugar, and a mild body to the palate. Not much of this tea was made because the factory insisted on their regular process would work just fine (which did not work at all), so get a hold of some of this before it runs out, otherwise there will be a whole year of waiting ahead!
