The tea is a Wuyi Oolong that comes from Mingjian, central Taiwan.
The tea was first processed as an oolong tea and then subjected to a second oxidation in the style of a black tea. To be more precise, the processing method was: harvesting, wilting outside, wilting indoors, shaking and breaking up the leaf edges, oxidation, then no heating like with normal Oolong, but directly rolling to break up the leaf structure and then oxidation again like with a Hong Cha , then drying and shaping and roasting.
The Mingjian Wuyi Hong Oolong had been stored in Taiwan since 1999.
