Video lesson about Roasted Oolongs

Shan Lin Xi tea plantation, spring 2022

After 4 lessons about fresh high mountain Oolong, we are now examining the more complex roasted Oolongs. Last week we were brewing a 2022 spring high mountain Oolong from Shan Lin Xi. This week, we have turned our attention to very similar leaves: spring 2021 qingxin Oolong from Shan Lin Xi. The difference is that these leaves were processed 'Dong Ding competition style'! Check out my video class for my explanations:


In the coming weeks, we will continue our exploration of roasted Oolongs from this sampler. They are a perfect fit for the cool seasons and their long aftertaste helps to prolong our tea pleasure longer and longer!
