Oriental Beauty is also known as White Tip Oolong due to the silver-tipped, multi-colored, twisted leaves. This oolong is medium roasted and heavily oxidized (65-70%). It was harvest last summer (2023) in Vietnam.

Before the tea leaves are harvested in the summer, small insects called leaf hoppers nibble on the leaves. This stresses the tea plants producing compounds which create a honey-sweetness in the tea. An important point is that these tea plants are grown in organically controlled tea gardens to keep the leaf hoppers alive.

You can re-steep 3+ times and continue enjoying the sweet aroma and roasted fruit notes.
