This distinctive processing method creates a rich, intense flavour while preserving the complexity characteristic of oolong teas.<\/p>\n<p>Its larger, tightly rolled leaves are deep dark brown and gradually unfurl during brewing. The infusion has a clear, deep reddish-amber colour.<\/p>\n<p>Its flavour brings together aromas reminiscent of ripe fruit, honeyed and caramel notes, and a bold, full-bodied character. The flavours unfold with remarkable intensity, leaving a rich, lingering finish.<\/p>\n<p>Tai Dong Red Oolong is particularly appealing to those who enjoy exploring more powerful, pronounced flavours alongside lighter, more delicate oolong teas.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1785676357670{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-color: #ba3818 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>Preparation<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;justi&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Tai Dong Red Oolong reveals its intense flavour particularly well when prepared in a gaiwan or small teapot using several short infusions.<\/p>\n<p>Preheat your teapot or gaiwan, then add the tea leaves. Pour over water at 90\u201395\u00b0C and steep for 45\u201360 seconds. Gradually increase the steeping time for subsequent infusions.<\/p>\n<p>Notice how the tea&#8217;s rich fruity and caramel character develops, and how long its flavours linger after each infusion.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1785676062328{border-left-width: 3px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;border-left-color: #ba3818 !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3>History<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;justi&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Taiwanese tea production underwent significant changes during the second half of the 20th century. Between the 1950s and 1970s, black tea was an important export product. However, as cheaper teas from overseas gained ground, Taiwanese producers increasingly turned towards the domestic market.<\/p>\n<p>Oolong teas became particularly popular among local consumers, especially the lighter, floral varieties grown at high altitudes. This created difficulties for the lower-altitude tea-growing areas of Taitung County in south-eastern Taiwan, which struggled to compete directly with the renowned high-mountain plantations.<\/p>\n<p>To revitalise local tea production, researchers, growers and tea masters began experimenting with new processing techniques. Their aim was to create a tea that would make the most of the region&#8217;s growing conditions and develop a distinctive character of its own.<\/p>\n<p>Their collaboration led to the <strong>development of Red Oolong in 2008, under the direction of research station director Wu Sheng-Shun<\/strong>. The new style combined extended withering, more intensive rolling, a high degree of oxidation and roasting.<\/p>\n<p>Red Oolong opened up new opportunities for tea growers in Taitung, particularly in the Luye area. It also demonstrated that innovation continues to play an important role in Taiwan&#8217;s long-established tea culture.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7019&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Tai Dong Red Oolong is a distinctive expression of Taiwan&#8217;s modern tea culture, celebrated for its intense flavour and long-lasting finish.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hely tajvan\">Place of origin: Taiwan<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7014,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[59],"product_tag":[75],"class_list":["post-7299","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-oolong-tea-en","product_tag-taiwan-en","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/7299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7014"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=7299"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=7299"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/most-tea.hu\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=7299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
