Grown in the Thai hillside village of Mae Salong Nok, this balanced oolong yields a golden color and complementary earthy notes reminiscent of stem of broccolini and water chestnuts. Rinse tea leaves with heated water prior to steeping. Good for 6+ infusions when brewed Gong Fu style. Recommended for fans of Jin Xuan oolong tea—also called #12—which originated in Taiwan.

With a silky mouthfeel, this delectable, pale-gold brew presents with the light nuttiness of walnuts and a honey-butter milkiness.
The comportment of Royal Oolong is similar to Tieguanyin or PARU’s Daily Oolong and is suitable for the palette that savors more delicate or sweet oolong teas.
