Taiwanese Dark Roasted Oolong Tea (Single Estate Tin)

A charcoal-roasted Taiwanese oolong from a single estate in Taitung. Hand-finished and slow-roasted in the traditional style, with a smooth, buttery character and layered notes of sticky rice, malt, and honey that deepen across multiple infusions.

Why we like it

• Single-origin from one estate in Taitung, Taiwan, at 400m elevation; one place, one harvest, no blending
• Charcoal-roasted in the traditional Taiwanese style, which gives the tea its rich, toasty character without ever turning smoky
• Tightly balled leaves unfurl across 4 reinfusions, releasing slightly different flavor each time; the second steep is often the favorite

How to enjoy

Steep 3.5g of leaves in 10oz of 195°F water for 5 minutes. Reinfuse 2-3 more times, the leaves keep giving, and each cup is a slightly different cup. Try the gongfu method (multiple short steeps) for the fullest experience.
