Dong Ding Competition 1st Grade | Collection Box
Product code:
CSTAD-151
This award-winning first class tea is one of the hundreds of wulong teas in its category from an average of 6000 lots presented at this biennial competition in Luku (Taiwan). Rolled into small homogeneous balls, the leaves feature the colours typical of the traditional cooking in the region, the essential prerequisite to enter the competition.
Its liquor, rich and oily, deploys its aromatic complexity with excellent balance, oscillating between heavier aspects of bark and toasted bread and more volatile floral notes. Its ripe fruit character blends harmoniously with its sweet and zesty accents.
A great tea, delicious from beginning to end.
