Gui Fei oolong is a remarkably distinctive and unique Taiwanese tea in both flavour and stories to tell about! For the stories, read the Background Information found below, for some tasting references we could easily sum it up by honey, honey, and more honey! Wild honey that is, with it’s mineral and pastoral complexity of wild flower sweetness with roasted nuts and woodsy overtones. Honey in the colour, Honey in the texture. Honey in the soothing, sweet comforting taste! We simply can’t make enough and end up producing several Lots in one year. This new Lot 940 is our tea maker’s best baking of spring 2020 and made from tea allowed to mellow several months before baking. It follows in the footsteps of our previous lots and has undergone a 3 stage baking process with air-tight mellowing breaks of several weeks in between. This allows the flavours and aromas to stabilize and fully permeate the leaves. For those of you who liked our previous lots, this year’s bakings are one good notch above owing to the particularly generous teas selected to make this Lot 940. This is a wonderful tea for chilly afternoons and evenings or summer camp fire rejoicings.
