Dark Oolong tea is a rich and expressive tea with a deep, warming character. Its aroma reveals notes of roasted nuts and seeds, complemented by hints of cocoa and baked goods. The taste is bold and насыщенный, with a long, smooth, and pleasant aftertaste. This tea is perfect for focused work and sustained energy, and it can easily appeal even to coffee lovers thanks to its depth and intensity.
Our farmers hand-pick this tea in early summer (May–June), when young leaves are at their peak and develop a full, well-rounded flavor without excessive astringency.
Classic Infusion
Chinese Gongfu Style
Cold Brewing
Heat water to about 95°C. If you don’t have a thermometer, boil water and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Measure tea: use 1 g per 100 ml of water.
Preheat your teaware to maintain a stable temperature.
Rinse the tea leaves briefly (3–5 seconds) with hot water to awaken them.
Brew according to your chosen method.
Continue infusing while the tea retains its flavor, gradually increasing steeping time with each infusion. Toward the final brews, you can extend steeping up to 2 minutes.
What’s the difference between brewing methods?
It depends on your time and the experience you want: Classic brewing - one rich, full-bodied cup, perfect for everyday use Gongfu brewing - multiple infusions with evolving flavor, ideal for tea rituals Siphon brewing - clean, well-extracted, and refined taste
Why 1 g per 100 ml? Isn’t that too little?
This is the optimal ratio for a balanced, smooth flavor without bitterness. If you prefer a stronger infusion, you can slightly increase the amount.
How to store this tea?
Store in an airtight container, in a cool, dry, and dark place. Keep away from strong odors such as spices or coffee. Do not refrigerate — it negatively affects the aroma.
Can children drink this tea?
Yes, in moderation. Oolong tea contains caffeine, so smaller portions are recommended for children.
Can it be served cold?
Yes, but this tea tastes better hot and warm.
