About the tea:
Red oolong is a type of oolong that undergoes the same oxidation as black tea and is made into balls. The tea soup is dark amber red and has a sweet taste with a strong caramel aroma.
The tea bushes are left to grow freely among other trees on the mountain and are described by the farmers as “released into the wild.” The temperatures at such altitude is quite low, and the tea made in that area is called “Gao Leng Cha” (high cold tea).
How to participate in the project:
Each person who has purchased one of our Project Teas can help us give these teas a name and develop a Tea Spirit for them. To do so, simply write us an email or contact us on our social media with your order number and share your ideas. May the tea and its region serve as your inspiration :)
