Oriental Beauty, Late Summer Harvest
Well known for an intense, honey-like fragrance and rich texture, this highly oxidized oolong from western Taiwan attributes its distinctive character to tiny leafhoppers, which nibble the leaves while still on the plant. In order to fend off the attack, the plant alters its internal chemical composition, resulting in unique aromatic compounds that form in the leaves during processing.
Only the buds and tender young leaves of the Qing Xin cultivar have been used for this prized lot; revel in the layered notes of azalea, young plum, and cherry wood that unfurl through multiple infusions, like the scent of wildflowers on a warm breeze.

I purchased this the first time because I’ve heard several people online talking about the oriental beauty.
The first purchase, when I tasted the tea, I understood immediately what they were saying online. The mouth feel is tremendously smooth, almost too smooth for tea. The taste was as wonderful as the view of tea mountains. It is Graceful, clean, beautiful natural.
I ended up sharing my bag of Oriental beauty with several people. They all intern agreed that this was a very delicious cup of tea. Before you knew it, I use up all my tea. This inspired me to not let it go and had to buy another bag. I am on my second bag and have introduced it to some more people. I need to start making money off all the tea I’m giving away, but I’m not in business yet so, I can’t make any money.
Attached is what I set up to allow others to see what the Oriental beauty is all about.
I hope you like the picture and if you’re reading this and think that you wanna try it I highly suggest you should try it!
Good tea. I really enjoy it.
I have always loved the quality of tea from here — thoroughly enjoyed it and recommended friends!
An extraordinary tea, highly recommended
