Eastern Beauty Oolong
After years of looking, we have finally found an Eastern Beauty Oolong to put on the site. Grown in Emei Township, the heart of the traditional Eastern (Oriental) Beauty growing region, this one is about as traditional as it gets. A small, multi generational farm produces this tea in small, meticulously handmade batches where every day's production tastes different!
The experience of this tea is beautiful, from the rich, soft sweet smell of the wet leaves to the strong floral perfume of the brew itself, to the final sweet finish. Masterfully crafted by a multi generational tea making family, we are proud to support people that make teas such as this one.
**Eastern, or Oriental, Beauty Oolongs are highly sought-after teas in both the local Taiwanese and international markets. Floral, soft, fruity and sweet, these bug-bitten mid-high oxidized oolongs are the favorite of many for good reason! They also tend to have a higher price tag than other teas.
