A lovely traditional Ti Kwan Yin, medium oxidized and comforting. Before greener oolongs took off in popularity, we used to see more of this style. The heavier oxidation gives this tea a warming quality with dried fruit sweetness and well-integrated toastiness. A quick rinse of the tightly rolled leaves opens up the flavor in the first, aromatic steep. The second steep yields more body and intensity.
