Although most Oolongs come from the area once called Formosa, Oolong teas are becoming more popular in other tea growing regions. The leaves lie somewhere between green and black with regards to oxidation and are know for providing a beautiful cup with potential for more than one infusion.
This moderately oxidized Fujian Oolong, warm and woody, is complemented quite nicely by the addition of Osmanthus Blossoms—tiny late summer flowers prized by the Chinese for their rich, nectar-like flavor reminiscent of peach.
Preparation: 3 g tea leaves (teaspoon measurement not recommended) per 8oz cup of filtered, boiling water. Allow to brew 3 min.
A fine and robust representative of Oriental Beauty or Dong Fang Mei Ren, a specialty of Northern Taiwan. The Ming Xiang is heavier than its Formosa counterparts, a rich amber in the cup with a smoky depth that contrasts with sweeter fruit notes. By all means a fantastic “sipping tea.”

Multiple infusions are possible and recommended.
