“This sample is a bit old now, but is from Liquid Proust. I found it sweet (honey), but also drying in the mouth. Definitely some darker notes, a lot of roastiness, and a bit fruity (cooked peaches).” Read full tasting note
“I think that I might like medium roast oolongs. This one reminded me a lot of the Rou Gui Oolong-the smell had the roasted nuts character with a weird floral, vegetal background. The same is said...” Read full tasting note

Description

Hong Shui Oolong is a fantastic Taiwanese oolong that has been expertly fermented and lightly roasted to perfection by an expert tea master who uses an ancient process of handling tea leaves. This specific tea tree is allowed to be attacked by the local leaf hoppers (little insects who eat the tea leaves) which greatly enhance the flavors and healing components of the tea.

The Hong Shui produces a perfectly balanced sweet roast flavor of baked fruit layers that combines plum, apricot and honey. The aroma is deeply fragrant of fruity notes with an undertone of sugarcane sweetness. The deep finish lingers for your enjoyment and the high quality of the oolong allows for multiple infusions without losing any depth of flavor.
