High Fire Da Hong Pao on Sale

Description

High Fire Da Hong Pao
The dark oolongs from Wuyishan are known for their distinct roasting, usually repeated after processing to preserve and develop the flavor, but this Da Hong Pao has been roasted four times since its harvest! No need to expect a bundle of charcoal, however: the body is round with a woody sweetness and a pleasant whiff of smoke. Notes of redcurrant and cooked apple taper off into a touch of cinnamon and moderate astringency. Connoisseurs of Da Hong Pao will appreciate a truly grounded rendition that maintains the richness of flavor which first won the cultivar its exulted status.
