Ingredients

Oolong

Sitting between a green and a black tea, traditional Oolong is withered by the sun and air, bruised through rolling, semi-oxidized and baked, then twisted and rolled into small spheres with purple and green hues before a final roast. Grown on Dong Ding mountain in Taiwan, this Oolong is harvested from a 4th generation farm and nurtured using a distinct set of cultivar to bring forth its optimized flavor. Handpicked and slow roasted over charcoal wood, our Dong Ding Oolong represents the coupling of impeccably grown leaves harvested under optimal conditions in the high mountains of Taiwan and traditionally processed by an expert tea master. Naturally rich in probiotics, Oolong is optimal for a happy belly. Coupled with its caffeine this is the perfect tea to start your day.

5.	This Oolong was gifted to me from Joe. @fish_ne_where. I was saving it for a special occasion such as this. My parents are in town visiting for my Mom’s birthday. I broke in my Yixing clay Zisha – purple sand tea set and we all enjoyed this delicious Oolong. The flavors are so clean, fresh and lively! They danced in our pallets with notes of gardenia, pine nuts, honey comb, and rich caramel. It’s a truly delightful tea! The tea paired perfectly with the most amazing cookies from @trouvicookieco. Thank you to my good friend Chris @chopgomez for sending us an entire box! They are gluten free and literally the best cookies I’ve ever had!
