Dong Fang Mei Ren is the local name for Eastern Beauty, a style of uniquely oxidized oolong tea developed in the 19th century in the low elevation microclimates of Northern Taiwan. This tea, from among the most cherished of lots made just 10 days a year in early June, has nuances of honey and pit fruit.
Additional Info: Eastern Beauty is one of our most unique offerings in that the highest qualities will ripen over time. This tea will become richer and smoother in texture, and develop deeper stone fruit flavor as it ages. We recommend storing this tea in one of our Tea Storage Tins to enjoy it throughout the next 1–2 years.
