OOLONG TEA

This tea was hand-picked in Çayeli, Rize in the Autumn of 2020. The picking standard is one bud and the first two leaves. The fresh leaves are left for drying naturally for 24-36 hours. Later they were hand-rolled for about half an hour on hazelnut baskets. The leaves are then left for oxidisation for 10 to 15 minutes. The tea processing is completed with pan-frying for up to 90 minutes. This oolong tea has an oxidation level of about 30%, and it offers highly aromatic fruity notes.
