Dong Ding Oolong | Oolong Tea

Dong Ding 凍頂烏龍 — Frozen Summit — from Lugu Township in Nantou, Taiwan, around 700 to 1200 metres. Ours is Qingxin, oxidised to about forty percent, hand-rolled into a semi-ball, then taken through multiple rounds of charcoal roasting so the cup runs warmer and rounder than the light high-mountain lots.

We find woody roast and floral lift with honey sweetness and a hint of sweet potato under the aromatic attack; the liquor stays golden, mellow and smooth, with roasted chestnut depth and a lingering sweet finish. It is fragrance and flavour together, not perfume alone.

This is the Dong Ding we keep when we want classic Taiwanese charcoal roast — thick enough to sit in the mouth, still clear enough to brew through many infusions.

Dong Ding, also spelled as Tung Ting (Frozen Summit )Oolong, is a medium-fermented tea with an oxidation level of approximately 40%, is a semi-ball-shaped tea. It is produced in Lùgǔ Township, southwest of Nántóu County, Taiwan, at an elevation of approximately 700-1200 meters. Due to its cultivation on the Frozen Summit Mountain and processing with Qingxin Oolong buds and leaves, it is named 'Frozen Summit' Oolong Tea. Another legend has it thatdDue to the abundant rainfall on high mountains and slippery roads, tea farmers must tread carefully and cautiously as they ascend to the mountaintop. This is why it is named "Frozen Summit," and colloquially referred to as "Frozen Toe Tips."

The tea exhibits a golden and bright liquor color, intense aroma, and mellow taste, making it a renowned Oolong tea known for its harmonious combination of fragrance and flavor. As we savored its exquisite flavors, hints of sweet potato complemented the overwhelming aromatic attack, leaving a pleasant lingering sensation in our throats.
