Roasted Dong Ding Oolong | Taiwan | Early Summer 2026

There is something deeply comforting about a beautifully roasted Dong Ding. This early summer 2026 harvest from Taiwan is an exceptional example of why this classic style continues to captivate tea connoisseurs around the world. Crafted from the renowned Qingxin cultivar, the tightly rolled leaves unfurl to reveal a cup that is rich and creamy with layers of flavors. The first sip offers warm notes of toasted grain and wild honey, followed by hints of raspberry preserves that lend a gentle fruit sweetness. As the tea opens through successive infusions, delicate woody and fragrant fruity notes emerge, creating a beautifully balanced profile that is both grounding and elegant.
