Taiwan Lugu Dong Ding Oolong Tea is characterised by fermented tea due to the alpine climate, which the coldness and short average sunshine hours make the bitter components of Catechins inside the bud leaves decrease, yet Theanine and Soluble Nitrogen (contributing to the sweet taste) increase.
They are why the good leaves’ colour of Dong Ding is fresh and lively, along with its smooth and particular taste (the tea fragrance remains long and strong inside the mouth), and the level of brewing times is relatively high. All of our tea leaves are Hand-harvested only and strictly require One bud Two leaves, which are the conditions for the Premium Oolong tea.
