A classic that should be in every tea drinker's collection. This black oolong is soothing, comforting and delicious. Spring harvest always brings out the brighter, lighter notes of this style, with this year reminding us of butternut squash and light honey. You’ll notice these flavors at higher temperatures, with the cacao presenting as the broth cools. If you’ve never had our black oolong before, you should expect an incredibly smooth brew – I always like to equate it to the creamiest, juiciest black tea you’ll ever drink. To produce this oolong we pair heavy oxidation with a 15 hour roast.
