This Red Oolong tea is produced just once a year and is inspired by the classic Dong Ding style from the renowned Lugu growing region. This version puts a fresh spin on tradition, grown at a higher elevation and just as delicious. Coffee lovers may appreciate its long, lingering aftertaste and subtle astringency. Expect notes of pecan, dried pear, and burnt sugar.

Steep 4 g of loose leaf tea at 206 °F for 60 seconds. This tea is also perfect for cold brewing. Use 2 heaping tablespoons of oolong per quart of water, steeped overnight in your fridge. Use extra tea if you want to sip it over ice!
