Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea Bags

The jewel in the crown of Taiwanese oolongs, Oriental Beauty is a heavily oxidized tea whose unique, honey-like sweetness and mellow, fruity aroma is the result of allowing the tea jassid—a common pest—to feed on the leaves, stimulating the plant’s production of chemical compounds. It is also referred to as a white-tip oolong, after the colour the edges of the leaves turn in the process. This wholly-handpicked tea is our bestseller and makes the perfect gift for oolong initiates and connoisseurs alike!

Our fully-biodegradable teabags make enjoying our whole leaf tea more convenient for those on the go!
