CSTW-30
The expertise of Mr. Nen Yu is doubly honored here with this tasty cooking of Dong Ding, wulong tea from Taiwan.
The dark khaki leaves exhibit from their infusion intoxicating fragrances of berries (raspberry jam), honey and toast. Its liquor, rich and creamy, reveals a nice balance between its wooded and vegetal aspects.
This generous tea also features an exotic finish of pineapple and flowers.

Mucha Tie Guan Yin (roasted)
Planted in around 1875 in the Mucha region, this Wulong tea is unique to the Taiwanese archipelago. M. Gao presents his marvellous version of the Iron Goddess of Mercy (Tie Guan Yin).
Dong Ding Mr. Chang
Over the years, wulongs from Dong Ding Mountain (Taiwan) have made quite a name for themselves.
Qi Lan Xiang
Rolled into thin twists, true to the style of Guangdong in China, this wulong has, however, been roasted only once (rather than twice) preserving its greenness and its distinctly floral aromatic bouquet.
Shan Lin Xi
The mountain of Shan Lin Xi is steep and imposing, highly exposed to the natural elements. Its wild character seems to be reflected in the Wulong tea produced in this region.
