In Chinese, the name of this tea means “great red robe”. Legend has it that a magistrate of the Ming dynasty fell ill while visiting the region’s gardens. He drank a few sips of tea offered by the village farmers and felt much better. As a token of gratitude, he hung his great red robe at the garden gates. This oolong offers an explosion of aromas: the toasted, woody attack is then softened by a floral, fruity bouquet, nuanced by mineral and spiced notes.
