What Is Dong Ding Oolong?
Dong Ding, also written as Tung Ting and translated as "Frozen Summit" or "Icy Peak," is one of Taiwan's most celebrated oolongs. Grown in the Lugu region of Nantou County and made from the Chin Shin cultivar, it is lightly oxidised then roasted - with the roasting level determining everything from aroma to body to finish.

What's in the Flight

Light Roast - 50g
Fragrant orchid · fresh citrus · sweet, smooth creaminess
The most delicate and floral expression. Closest to a green oolong in character - light, aromatic, and refreshing.

Medium Roast - 50g
Osmanthus · honey · peach · lingering creaminess
The mid-point between floral brightness and roasted warmth. A rounded, naturally sweet everyday cup.

Dark Roast - 50g ⭐ Great Taste Award Winner
Butterscotch · dark honey · rich caramel · thick, satisfying texture
Roasted for over 24 hours. The deepest, most complex expression - toasty, smooth, and full-bodied with no bitterness.
