Red Thunder Autumn Oolong Tea
A fragrant Teabox exclusive, brisk and medium-bodied, vibrant with notes of candied orange, prunes and berries.
description
A delicious oolong that’s aromatic and welcoming. Candied oranges pleasantly hit the palate with the first sip as the sweetness of prunes show up intermittently. These flavors stay through the cup with soft hints of fruit tart lighting up the edges and giving the cup a unique profile. The autumnal woody tones smoothen the liquor toward the end and make way for crisper notes of sweet-tart berries. This stays on for an excellent finish.
