  • Brews 60 Cups

Origin Anxi, Fujian China

Black Dragon oolong is grown in the mountains of Anxi County, the home of oolong tea in China. There are at least twelve oolong tea plant cultivars growing in Anxi, each with its own distinct flavor profile. The most famous of these cultivars is Tieguanyin, meaning "Iron Goddess of Mercy" in Mandarin.

Oolongs 

Oolongs range in their flavor (mild and floral to strong and toasty) and color (from light green to dark) depending on the processing technique adopted. Black Dragon is a darker oolong with high oxidization. 

Rolling Technique 

Leaves are plucked and then withered to reduce moisture. When suitable leaf suppleness is achieved, traditional rolling techniques (wrapping the leaves in a cloth and binding it tightly into ball shape) are applied in conjunction with light roasting.

Roasting 

Successive and short re-rolling and re-roastings are done to achieve the optimal shape and flavor. A final roast is given to complete the processing. 

Flavor Profile 

Toasted aroma with a sweet, strong, grain aftertaste. 

Suggested use

Brewing

Brew one teaspoon of leaf in twelve ounces of pure spring or filtered water at 185ºF for four minutes. Provides at least two infusions.

Other ingredients

Oolong tea leaves.
