Description

Fantastic aged Taiwanese oolong.

From the website: This 40-year-old Bai Hao has retained its fruity character despite the many successive firings needed to age it. Thanks to a fresh, slightly oily (flaxseed oil) texture, the liquor blends woody (vetiver, sandalwood) and roasted (coffee, chicory) flavours with luxurious (buckwheat honey, blackstrap molasses) and fruity (figs, dried dates and apricots, gooseberries, and blackcurrants) notes. The fruity and acidic finish is long and fades elegantly with a hint of minerals and beautifully subtle aromatics. An exquisite tea.
