Old Master Dong Ding Oolong(2020)

Last year we expanded the 'Old Master' series with this beautiful tea and this year's production might be even better. Weather conditions were perfect this year for the spring harvest in the Dong Ding region and this year's version of this tea is gorgeous. Produced by an 81 year old tea master from the main village of Dong Ding, this complex tea gives rich creamy sweetness, sour fruit, roasted caramel and more as the leaves unfold. And it will only get better with age.

We have a limited amount of this the 2019 tea left and we care currently offering the option of sampling both teas while supplies last!
