This hard to find classic Dongding style oolong is dark oxidized and dark roasted. The oxidization level is slightly ligher than Hong Shui Oolong. It is full bodied, possesses the aroma of ripe fruits and caramel. The aftertaste is sweet and smooth.

Brewing:
You can start with 1 tsp for 120cc 95℃ water, steam about 70 seconds for the first brew. 30 seconds for the second infusion, and double the timing for the following infusions. Provides at least 3 infusions.
The tea leaves need to be fully expanded in the container, remember not to put too much loose tea to avoid over packed. One tip to keep in mind is the amount of dry loose tea should be around 1/4 or smaller of the teaware or container, after brewing, the tea leaves will expand to 80%-90% of the container. Once you get familiar with the tea, you may explore your own brewing method.

Teaware:
Gongfu teaware or Yixing pots suit best for Oolong tea, glassware, Gaiwan, or porcelain teaware are also good personal choices.
