Formosa Aged Dongding Oolong 2004 is the best choice for entry level aged oolongs. Aged oolong is re-roasted every few years, and stored in clay pots to enhance aging. This aging process produces the unique ripe fruit and roasted rice aromas. It is mild in caffeine and smooth for your stomach.
How to store aged oolong? It’s just as easy as “let it sit there and age more”, away from light, moisture, and ordor. It is not necessory to keep in air-tight container, because it helps aging if the tea is exposed to some air. It’s a good idea to keep it in a clay canister, or even in a plastic bag, and store in a nice, dry, dark space.
