Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
From the Guangdong province of China, our Almond Dancong oolong is made from a taorenxiang varietals. Taorenxiang (peach pit fragrance) is technically a sub-type of xingrenxiang which translates as almond fragrance, but we're calling it almond anyhow because it's the more recognizable umbrella group. The tea tastes of creamy divinity (the southern dessert, not an act of divine intervention), stone fruits and marzipan with a bright an uplifting roasted aromatic profile. Each purchase is for 25 grams of tea.
