Organic Traditional Iron Buddha Oolong (Tie Guan Yin Wu Long) from Jing Tea

Organic Traditional Iron Buddha Oolong (Tie Guan Yin Wu Long)

Oolong Tea by Jing Tea

A fantastic, Organically certified version of one of the definitive Chinese Oolong teas.

Medium fired and oxidised in the traditional way to give a beautifully satisfying, flavour of roasted hazel and autumn fruits. It is also wonderful when paired with fried mushrooms.

Deeply mellow, with a buttery mouthfeel and a light nuttiness. The liquor has a silky smooth feel, almost like a very fine olive oil.

The floral tones are delicate and play second fiddle to the nuttiness. There is also a hint of smokiness in the aftertaste.

Overall, the flavor is rich and soothing, yet light and satisfying.

Have not tried it with fried mushrooms, but I’d bet that it’s sublime.
