Frozen Summit '18 Vintage

Tobacco, toasted walnut, molasses

Regular price $24

Oolong tea · low oxidation · dark roast

Tobacco, toasted walnut, molasses

This vintage version of Frozen Summit is a tearoom favorite in the winter. This is an aged Frozen Summit oolong from the year 2018 and it has a deeper aroma than the classic Taiwanese Frozen Summit.

Every year, as part of the tea-aging process, the tea master retrieves stored teas. He dials in the temperature of the charcoal and prepares the tightly rolled tea leaves on bamboo trays. The heat will remove traces of summer rain and accentuate the depth of flavor from aging.

Our Frozen Summit Vintage tastes of molasses and toasted walnuts. The mouthfeel is full and expansive with flares of tobacco.
