A lightly roasted oolong grown in the high elevation of Fujian’s Anxi mountains. Our supreme grade leaves are hand-picked from the newest sprouts of the season, giving the tea a refined and delicate flavor.
Aroma: Milky, floral, earthy
Flavor: Buttery, silky, floral, vegetal
Origin: Anxi, China
Brewing: 185°F for 2 minutes, recommended 3g of tea for 6 fl oz water
The first steep already smelled like fresh spring air, and the liquor stayed sweet and smooth through five infusions. You can really taste the care in those hand-picked new sprouts from Anxi.
The light roast on these hand-picked Anxi leaves is exactly what I look for in an evening oolong—gentle but with enough body to linger. The high-elevation character comes through in every steep, so smooth I almost forgot I was on my third cup. My favorite new tea this season.
Brewed this in a gaiwan after dinner and the high-elevation character really comes through—light, smooth, with a gentle sweetness that lingers. The hand-picked sprouts make each steep feel delicate rather than harsh, and I got several infusions before it faded.
