Description

Famous black wulong from the Wuyi mountains of Fujian. Whole, delicately twisted, leaves are lightly roasted for a rich full liquor. A good quantity of buds create an impressive balance between mouth and nose. Complexed aromatics of sweet rusticity with a hint of fresh cream. Long, pleasant aftertaste and a low level of caffeine.
