Description

Lightly roasted oolong tea from Fujian province with a natural elegant aroma similar to osmanthus flowers. Good for multiple steeps with a lighter, floral taste compared to the heavier roasty sweetness of Tikuanyin or Taiwan Dongding, the body of this tea becomes richer after the first steep. Recommended for those who prefer lighter roasted oolongs without the greener taste of pouchong.
