About Our Organic Dong Ding Oolong
Enjoy the clear and pure character of this Chinese Oolong Tea made from the Qing Xin cultivar and grown in Da Ming Shan – a diverse organic tea garden (a rare find for a Chinese oolong of this kind) surrounded by deep forest at 1100m above sea level in Shanglin, Guangxi. Tea master Liang Jian Shan works with their team to hand pluck the leaves in the middle of May, oxidising them to 25%, before roasting them over charcoal to impart a deep flavour with notes of fruit, rye and spice.
