Overview
Best pick • solid oolong choice from Unknown origin
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
The sweet and floral aromatics float over a brothy and buttery cup with the savory quality of open fire cooking. The salty/turmeric character has a stone, mineral finish. Heavy in its heartiness, the sophisticated design of primitive elements. Produced April 25, 2025 by our friend Mr. Soup in Xin Xu Town, Hua’an County, Fujian Province. It’s a one bud, three leaf pick of the Tieguanyin cultivar growing at approximately 2,400 feet. For more excellent teas from Mr. Soup, check out Agate Hunter, Rock Tumbler, and Philosopher’s Stone.
