We Make Our Own Tea Blends Only If We Feel The Combination Does Not Detract From The Tea’S Natural Character. Ginseng Root Pairs Especially Well With Our Winter Harvested Tung Ting.
A Descendent Of Oolong Varieties Taken From Jian’Ou In China’S Fujian Province, Tung Ting Was Brought To The Eponymous Central Taiwan Mountain In The Mid-1800S. Its Name Means “Frozen Summit”, In Reference To What Was, At The Time, One Of The Highest Elevation Tea Gardens In Taiwan. Today, Tea Is Grown At Far Higher Elevations In Taiwan, But Tung Ting Retains Its Reputation As One Of The First Taiwanese Teas.
Our Tung Ting Was Gathered At A Little Over 700 Meters Above Sea Level, In An Area Outside Lugu, Nantou County. We Source Exclusively Winter Harvested Leaves For Their Fragrance And Mouth Feel – The Tea Is Then Oxidized To Accentuate Its Fresh Orchid And Gardenia Notes.
Ginseng Adds An Underlying Richness And Sweetness While Accentuating The Natural Floral Aroma Of The Tea.
This Is Our Go-To Brewing Method For Formosa Oolongs, Since It Balances Each Element Of This Style’S Character. For An Even Sweeter And Richer Taste, Decrease You Water Temperature While Extending Brew Time; For A Brighter And More Vegetal Taste, Increase Your Water Temperature While Slightly Decreasing Brew Time.
