Made for you with the fanciest silver-tipped leaves, our Imperial Formosa tea is mesmerizing. Its sweet amber liquor, paired with a supple bouquet of orange blossoms and chestnuts, is complimented by gentle hints of dates and musky cedar and an extraordinary fragrance.
Ingredients: 100% Bai Hao Oolong •
Why it’s Special:
** The most famous of the Taiwanese Dark Oolongs
** Natural notes of peach and guava that are prominent on the front palate
** Notes of buttered toast and honey in the finish
** A complex flavor that is heavier than a Green Oolong, yet lighter than a Darjeeling
** The tea leaves are naturally torn while growing, giving the tea intense citrus flavors
What to be Careful of:
** It is darker and more oxidized than a Green Tea, giving it a more robust flavor
** Not as malty and astringent as Black Tea
** Does not pair well with milk and sugar
** More caffeine than Green Tea, but less than Black Tea
** While it has strong and natural flavors, do not expect it to taste like a tea blend
