This is an old tree Assamica oolong which is the result of a few years of experimenting. 

This tea goes through a shaking step in one of those bamboo tube shaped machines. The type that are used when making oolong tea in Taiwan. The tea goes through a number of cycles in the shaking machine and is then dried with hot air.

This tea has a warming spice character reminiscent of a red oolong with some dian hong black tea profile. I could also understand if some people get some aged white tea notes as it still retains some lightness.

This is quite an interesting tea as you can clearly taste the processing input as well as the character of the base material.
