Oriental Beauty B Oolong Tea

Oriental Beauty B (东方美人茶, Dōngfāng Měirén Chá) is a distinguished golden Oolong tea from the Doi Mae Salong Mountain Organic Plantation in Chiang Rai Province, Northern Thailand. This tea is renowned for its unique cultivation process, where tea leaves are bitten by tea jassids, causing the leaves to undergo a natural chemical change. This results in the tea's distinctive flavor profile, marked by a sweet, fruity aroma with hints of honey and spice.

Grown at altitudes exceeding 1200 meters, the cooler climate and rich soil contribute to the tea's complexity and depth. Oriental Beauty B is characterized by its beautiful array of leaf colors, ranging from silver to deep red, reflecting the minimal processing and careful hand-picking of the leaves.

Upon brewing, it yields a rich amber infusion that is smooth and full-bodied, offering a natural sweetness and a lingering aftertaste that is both refreshing and invigorating. This tea is a true testament to the art of Oolong tea production in Thailand, marrying traditional Chinese techniques with the unique terroir of Northern Thailand.

Oriental Beauty B from Doi Mae Salong is not just a tea; it's an experience that celebrates the rich tea culture of the region and showcases the skillful craftsmanship of local tea farmers.
