Partial Oxidization

This is the next iteration of Rose Tinted, now reimagined with an experimental, less oxidized flair. Though we’re selling it as a Hong Cha, the flavor profile is unlike anything else in that category, with volatile aromatics that shift between forested spice, resinous wood, and something almost camphorous. The mouthfeel carries that a spiced intensity that leaves warmth but doesn't overwhelm. 

For most of the year, these leaves are destined to become high mountain wulong tea. Interested in trying out the less oxidized version? Check out Among Clouds.
