Himalayan Oolong
Another hand-crafted gem from the foothills of the Himalayas. Made-to-order Oolong from our good friends at Guranse Estate located high in the rolling hills of Dhankuta in Nepal. This whole leaf tea from the autumn flush is hand-sorted, gently rolled, then lightly oxidized resulting in a greenish oolong with a marvelously mellow & fruity flavor.
