This All About Oolong Tea Gift Box contains the following oolong teas:

Dan Cong Mi Lan Xiang is a complex Phoenix Mountain oolong from Guangdong that is known for a honey orchid aroma and taste. The dark leaves produce a sweet, fruity liquor with notes of wild honey, exotic flowers and a lasting lightly roasted, mineral aftertaste.

Darjeeling Gopaldhara Maharaja is a top grade Second Flush 2020 oolong from Gopaldhara Tea Estate. Mixed fine leaves produce a dark amber liquor with a fruity aroma. The smooth flavour has mineral, fruity, honey and muscatel notes with a light citrus aftertaste.

Gao Shan Qing Xin Oolong is a beautifully floral high mountain Green Heart Oolong from Meishan, grown next to the famous Alishan National Scenic Area. Large, tightly rolled leaves produce an aromatic liquor with a bright floral character and sweet, creamy notes.

Gui Fei Oolong is an award-winning rare high mountain oolong from Taiwan. The leaves of this ‘beauty tea’ are nibbled by little green leaf hoppers. This results in a supremely unique wild honey flavour, with sweet, floral and woody notes.

Moc Chau Red Buffalo Oolong is a complex oolong from Vietnam that undergoes a higher degree of oxidation. It results in a tea that has a malty black tea character while retaining lighter floral attributes. The taste is warming and smooth with fruity notes of sweet raisins and wild honey.

Santikhiri Milk Oolong is a Jin Xuan oolong from the highlands of Doi Mae Salong in northern Thailand. Rolled leaves produce a bright liquor with a verdant, creamy aroma. The refreshing profile has a vegetal character with a light nutty aftertaste and a lasting milky mouthfeel.

Tie Guan Yin Iron Goddess of Mercy is a renowned light oolong tea that originates from Anxi County in Fujian Province of China. The tightly rolled leaves are light green and have a gentle floral scent. The pale gold liquor has a light flavour with little aftertaste. There are floral buttery notes of green vegetables with a hint of sweet peppers.

Vintage Oolong is our Tea Master’s family reserve oolong that has been expertly aged since 2001. It produces an amber liquor with a fruity and leathery aroma. The smooth fruity profile has complex flavours of tart fruits, tobacco and wood with a wine-like note.
