Description

Hong Shui means “Red Water” indicating the color of the tea broth once the tea is brewed. The deep red of this tea is an indicator of the high oxidization and high firing. With a nose of charcoal and toasted almonds and flavors of nuts, grains, and fruit, this is a complex but well balanced oolong that will pair well with any robust cuisine or just as a nice breakfast or after dinner tea.
