I love this company! Presentation, quality of leaf and super fun to drink multiple infusions of.
Dong Ding Oolong is a medium oxidized, heavily roasted tea with a hearty, complex, and robust character.
The initial steeping brings forth a complex bouquet of roasted vegetables, pine, and a touch of smokiness. On the palate, you get roasted sweet corn, nutty/fruity notes, and a tangy, heady finish with just the right touch of astringency.
Eco-Cha's source of this tea is representative of a Dong Ding Oolong from the original source of this type of tea. It demonstrates the broad spectrum of character and flavors that can be captured by refined roasting techniques.
