Oolong: A Darjeeling Masterpiece
Celebrate the changing seasons with our Autumn Classic Oolong, an exceptional offering from the renowned Gopaldhara Tea Estate. This traditional Darjeeling autumn tea captures the unique, mellow character of the late harvest, providing a cup that is both comforting and sophisticated.
The Flavor Profile
As the temperatures drop in the Himalayas, the tea leaves develop a distinct, concentrated sweetness. This Oolong offers a rich, amber-colored liquor with a deep, woody aroma and notes of ripe stone fruits and honey. It is characterized by its smooth, round body and a lack of the sharp astringency found in earlier harvests.
