Capturing the first moments of fall, our medium roasted Dong Ding Oolong or Frozen Summit embodies the crisp yet damp earthy air as the dried maple leaf sways from branch to grass. The robust yet smooth flavor is bursting with deep notes of chestnuts roasting over a toasty open fire mingling with honeyed baked apples. Each sip finishes with a lingering spiced astringent note that reminds us of mineral earth and pleasingly bitter hops. What makes our tea so good?
