1. Origin & Growing Region
Originating from Taiwan, which is considered a treasure of the tea industry, Dong Phuong My Nhan (Bach Hac Oolong). Currently, this tea line has been researched and developed in Vietnam, maintaining its quintessence but adding a local touch.
2. Harvesting
Completely handmade, only young buds are selected that have been lightly bitten by green leafhoppers (Jacobiasca formosana) with 10-30% of the leaf area. Harvesting time is usually in the summer, when there are many leafhoppers, ensuring enough natural compounds to create the characteristic honey aroma.
3. Oolong production process
Harvesting → Lightly sun-dried → 60–70% fermented (higher than regular Oolongs) → Gently kneaded → Dried.
The deep fermentation process increases the sweetness and develops the honey-fruity aroma, while maintaining a smooth, elegant aftertaste.
4. Taste & Feel
Lightly rolled dry tea leaves, reddish brown mixed with honey yellow. Clear amber tea water, natural honey aroma mixed with ripe fruit scent, faint white flower scent. Sweet, full-bodied taste, long aftertaste, leaving a soothing feeling in the throat. Eight words to sum it up: honey aroma, sweet taste, amber color, deep aftertaste.
