Description

This is the same tea as our Yushan High Mountain Oolong grown by Farmer Luo at 1,600m on Yushan but the processing is different. He gives it to a friend that specializes in charcoal roasting, not because he can’t do it… it’s just that it takes 3 days with no sleep to get it done!

This process mutes some of the top notes of this high quality oolong and replaces them with a satisfying roastiness. With a good viscous body, this is a thirst-quenching smooth drinker with long legs.
