Fo Shou

Description

Fo Shou

Fo Shou Oolong, or Buddha’s Hand, is a unique large leaf oolong tea varietal.  The unusually large, thick leaves are withered and rolled until a perfect medium-level of oxidation is attained.  Then the leaves are dried and given a light roast to help bring out natural aromas.  The aroma is light an earthy with hints of fresh peach.  The flavor is smooth and well rounded with a mineral character and a slight herbal aftertaste.  A great tea for drinking near a rocky ledge.
