About this tea

Ruby Oolong is a special type of oolong tea produced in the Doi Mae Salong mountainous region in northern Thailand. This full-bodied oolong tea is deeply oxidized and slowly baked to bring out complex layers of cacao, raisins, and black cherry with a sublime, elegant structure. The soil in northern Thailand is soft and loamy, providing a concentration of nutrients not found in other oolong tea origins. This lends a unique sweetness and rich viscosity in mouthfeel. Ruby Oolong is an excellent introduction to the world of oolong tea with its deliciously sweet caramelized fruit and chocolate aromas that permeate the air as soon as it is brewed.

Origin

Doi Mae Salong

Northern Thailand

Doi (“Mountain”) Mae Salong is a pristine high mountain oolong tea growing region in the far northern borderland in Chiang Rai province. Rich, loamy soil is mostly dirt with some mineral content of potassium and manganese. The soil is fed continuously with fresh high mountain water but also drains easily, providing the perfect growing material for tea trees.

Reviews Summary
Customers say: this ruby oolong is smooth, full-bodied, and rich with complex flavors including honey, amber, and malty notes. Many reviews mention its robust character that's bolder than typical oolongs but not overpowering. The tightly rolled leaves expand significantly when steeped and hold up well through multiple infusions, typically 2-3 steepings. Users appreciate its versatility for hot or cold brewing and find it suitable for daily drinking. While most praise its depth and smoothness, some note it can be too dark or black tea-like for their preference. Common feedback includes its distinctive reddish color and ability to provide lasting flavor satisfaction.

    JUICY!

    The aroma after rinsing is deep, fruity, with light woody notes. The taste matches the fragrance, medium body, juicy tropical fruits, like drinking a ripe guava. This is not lacking in the flavor department! Excellent everyday tea with just enough complexity to keep things interesting. You can even enjoy in a gaiwan over many steeps.

    Aromatic but funny aftertaste

    Very aromatic, fruity taste with light texture. Funny thing is 3 minutes after drinking, I taste some fishy / grassy aftertaste.

    Best Oolong I’ve tasted

    I’ve had several types of oolong and many are a bit weak for my taste. I like this ruby oolong because it is richer than the others. Also, it doesn’t bother my acid reflux problems, suggesting that the tea is robust yet mild, if that makes any sense. It’s pricey but I consider it well worth it.
