Our Winter 2015 Wu She is from the same tea garden as the exceptional Spring 2015 Wu She we offer. This high mountain oolong is from the highest part of Wu She area which is located at 1700 meters above sea level, and was picked and processed during the most perfect weather conditions, which proved tricky due to the Jeckyl and Hyde weather conditions that prevail in Wu She’s high mountain environment. The combination of human skills and nature’s fleeting benevolence makes this a beautiful and solid representation for winter high mountain oolong.
Roasted tea provides a special nuance and is especially enjoyable in the cold winter months. As such, we decided to have our Wu She roasted under the hand of a master. The masterful roasting transformed this tea, giving it a an almost “Dong Ding” like character, but with a more delicate body. It’s surprisingly similar to a Competition Grade Dong Ding both in aroma and body. If you are looking for a tea to warm you up in the winter, but prefer a delicate and respectful roast to a heavy roasting, this Wu She Light Roast will certainly please you.
