Long ago, I had a bad experience with Dong Ding. It was from David’s Tea, and all I can remember is that I was incredibly unimpressed by it- so much so that I actively avoided buying any Dong Ding Oolong again.
Cue right now, where I’m internally grateful it was a part of my mass oolong sample order from Teavivre. My dead head and my deader stomach take up this fruit punch aroma like a peace offering. The flavour profile is akin to a vegetal lemon cream dessert- which is another reminder to me that it’s been a while since I’ve had some proper Vitamin C food. I would kill for a grapefruit or orange right now. No more junk food. Food illness sucks.
Another food this reminds me of is the Lemon Zest Sunflower Kale Spaghetti I sometimes make when I want vegetables and calories in a pinch. Maybe that should go back on the meal plan.

Lemon Zest Sunflower Kale Spaghetti
This sounds like an amazing thing.
And thankfully, I have had stellar experiences with Dong Ding oolong. May they continue.
I think I need to do some intensive exploring, to make up for lost time. Have you tried this one yet
And, yeah, it’s a pretty good and easy to make dish! I lack culinary skills, so when a spaghetti or stir fry recipe comes along that tastes great AND is balanced I cling onto it like a lifeline.
No, I haven’t tried this one yet by this particular company.
Dong Ding can be really good! I remember Tea Ave’s being especially nice, but it’s a bit pricey.
I remember a nice one from Janet’s Special Teas as well.
After thoroughly enjoying their debut samples a few years ago, I keep meaning to revisit Tea Ave and check out their store front. Those prices though!
Janet’s another reason I need to make a trip to the island again!
Quite pleased with my purchases from Janet’s overall.
Tea Ave sounds fab. I have yet to try their teas. As for prices, well, oolong, yanno.
