Red Oolong (Organic)｜紅烏龍 (有機)｜
One of the few rare teas to come from Taitung, an idyllic pocket of pollution-free land in Eastern Taiwan, this Red Oolong is produced during the summer months to allow for a green leafhopper to ingest the leaves, inducing early oxidation and hence a honey-like aroma. Highly oxidized using black tea-production techniques, the result is a smooth, sweet tea with top notes of a black tea but undertones of an oolong.
