After harvesting, the tea leaves undergo an extended withering process, resulting in the loss of moisture and softening of the leaves. This process enhances the tea’s aroma while breaking down catechins, leading to minimal bitterness. The leaves are then lightly bruised in rollers, and finally, they are left to oxidize for several hours, creating the distinctive semi-green oolong.
The tea comes from the gardens of Mr. Chen, known for his meticulous care and excellent knowledge of tea cultivation and processing. This year’s harvest has been successful, and Mr. Chen has crafted a delightful, refreshing oolong with pronounced floral notes reminiscent of lilac, jasmine, and lily.
