Cassia Oolong, 'Roi Gui'
Oolong tea, China

Cinnamon, dried fruit, apple, wood
Roi Gui is a unique oolong from the famous Wuyi Mountains in Fujian province, China. If steeped carefully, its leaves can be infused up to seven times, with each infusion rewarding you with different notes; think sweet spice, woody and fruity aromas alongside cinnamon, nut, apple, tree bark and dried fruit flavours. Roi Gui is known as ‘Cassia Oolong’ because of its distinctive cinnamon note, which sets it apart from other teas of its kind. Smooth and pleasant to drink, this is a very special tea.

Preparation: Steep for 3 minutes at 90°. Two infusions. 

Food pairing: Hard cheese, muesli, granola, duck, teriyaki chicken and rice.
