Category: Oolong

We discovered Eastern Beauty, a velvety oolong, in Yunnan, China. Dark brown leaves indicate a higher-oxidized oolong, with a surprisingly bright aroma. This refreshing note rises from the melon-forward flavor. Just as fresh fruit gives minty or spicy impressions, Eastern Beauty conveys that pinpoint spriteliness up top, with a quiet, vanilla–spice note in the foundation.

The texture, though, makes the tea: smooth, balanced, honey-rich... Perfectly satisfying heft, for any fan of darker oolongs or whole-leaf black teas. Subsequent steeps remain medium- to full-bodied, making this oolong an excellent value for avid re-steepers or gong fu aficionados.

If you like discovering new flavors in tea, we can't say enough good things about this one! While this exquisite oolong comes from the base of Jingmai Mountain in Yunnan, the tea plants come from Taiwan. The leaves are hand-picked to ensure quality and consistency. A Taiwanese family who owns this farm. Their tea expertise shows in Eastern Beauty's balanced and exquisite flavor profile.

Didn't expect an oolong this dark to taste so bright—the melon note hits first, then it settles into something almost buttery. Steeped it three times and the leaves kept giving. Genuinely one of the smoothest teas I've had.

The wet leaves smell like fresh honeydew, which I did not expect from such dark, heavily oxidized leaves. Steeps smooth with zero astringency, and I got a solid four rounds out of one spoon before it faded.

I usually avoid darker oolongs, but the leaves here brew up velvety instead of bitter, and that melon sweetness sneaks in on the finish. Second steep was even better than the first.
