Our Honey Duchess a.k.a Gui Fei Oolong won the silver prize in the spring competition in the well-known Lugu (Deer Valley) township. This exquisite tea is made from leaves that have been bitten by the little green leafhopper, giving it a natural while subtle sweetness similar to honey. The leaves are then medium roasted in the traditional Dong Ding style from Lugu, resulting in a well-balanced tea with rich layers of aromas and unique flavors.
The main aroma is a clean and stable roasted scent, reminiscent of Longyan charcoal. Upon tasting, you'll notice subtle honey sweetness in the middle notes, adding complexity to its iconic Dong Ding style floral and woody base. The aftertaste is round and lingering, leaving a satisfying experience.
Our Gui Fei Oolong uses single cultivar: Chin-Shin Oolong, unlike other versions of Gui Fei Oolong that use a blend of tea cultivars to mimic the special sweetness from the bites of the little green leafhopper. Our tea roasting process requires mastery skills to maintain this subtle aroma and sweetness. Our limited batch will ensure harmonious flavors and authentic experience for tea enthuiastics.
For the best drinking experience, please follow our temperature and brewing guidelines.
