Oolong Dong Ding is a little stronger in flavor than the Oolong # 17 (also known as Ruan Zhi) even both are from the same plant. This is achieved by increased roasting and oxidation compared to Oolong # 17. Oolong Dong Ding has a very mild, like a flowery meadow in summer taste which remains even after repeated infusions. The fragrance unfolds slowly and is long lasting. The tea shines light yellow. Without a doubt, a magnificent tea.
