Dong Fang Mei Ren (Oriental Beauty) Loose Oolong Tea 2026 - 25g
Description
One of the most expressive and celebrated Taiwanese oolongs, renowned for its rich, complex, and multi-layered character. Every infusion reveals new nuances, making each tea session a unique experience.
The dry leaf offers an enchanting aroma of flowers, honey, light wine, and delicate spices. The infusion is deep, elegant, and refined, where natural sweetness intertwines beautifully with a soft, velvety acidity.
What makes this tea truly special is its natural interaction with green leaf cicadas during the growing season. Their gentle bites trigger a natural oxidation process while the leaves are still on the tea plant, creating the distinctive aroma and flavor profile that has made this tea famous worldwide.
Within a single cup, it is possible to discover echoes of several tea styles at once: the sweetness of black tea, the complexity of oolong, and the delicate elegance of white tea. A remarkable tea that offers something personal to every tea lover.
