Taiwan Dong Ding Oolong Tea

As a classic representative of Taiwanese high-mountain tea, Dongding Oolong originates from Dongding Mountain in Fenghuang Village, Lugu Township. The name “Dongding” derives from the mountain’s steep slopes, where climbers must tiptoe and “grab the peaks” to ascend—a name formed by the phonetic similarity in Min Nan dialect.

The dry leaves form semi-spherical, tightly twisted strands with a deep green hue. When brewed, the liquor reveals a honeyed golden-yellow tinged with pale green. Its flavor is rich and full-bodied, with floral notes intertwined with subtle caramel undertones. Smooth on the palate, it offers a lingering sweet aftertaste and a refined, enduring aroma. A quintessential choice among Taiwanese oolongs, it is perfect for daily savoring or entertaining guests.
