The Oolong Tea Mini Cakes Black is certainly a special product: it originates from the Taiwanese cultivars of Jinxuan and Ruanzhi, but grows in China, in Yunnan. The processing of this oolong refers to the production of the red tea from Yunnan, namely withering, rolling of the leaves, oxidation, and finally roasting, thus becoming a blend of the traditional processes of two countries. It is rich in sweet and malty flavors, with a truly enveloping and velvety body. This tea comes from Mount Dahei, located in the famous Pu'er province in Yunnan. Each package contains seven mini cakes of 7 grams each. The Oolong Tea Mini Cakes Black presents itself as a disc with a diameter of about 5 cm, made from leaves that are pressed very compactly. The colors range from deep brown to coppery brown with the presence of golden buds. Once infused, the mini cake begins to loosen the leaves and releases sweet and enveloping aromas of fragrant wood, malt, cocoa, and baked plums. The liquor goes from the amber orange of the first infusion to an intense ruby red in the last infusions. The first infusion of Oolong Tea Mini Cakes Black is sweet and malty, with slightly balsamic wood notes, hints of cooked and caramelized fruit, and a cocoa finish. In the second infusion, cocoa emerges first, here more intense, followed by aromatic wood and malt notes. The third infusion and the following ones also reveal notes of muscovado sugar, with an exponential increase in sweetness and aroma. The body is quite sustained, soft, and round. There is no sensation of bitterness or astringency on the palate: instead, one enjoys a good persistence, very fruity and surprisingly sugary. The tea comes from Pu'er, Yunnan, China. We strongly recommend infusing the Oolong Tea Mini Cakes Black using the traditional Chinese method (Gong Fu Cha) with a gaiwan of about 200 ml capacity. Following this preparation, with 7 grams of leaves, one can make several infusions to fully appreciate all the flavors of the tea. After a quick rinse of the leaves with water at 90°C, one can proceed to a first infusion of 50 seconds. Subsequently, keeping the water at the same temperature, one can continue to enjoy the product by adding more water and increasing the previous infusion time by about 5 seconds. This tea allows about 3-4 infusions. The suggested infusion timings can still be slightly adjusted to obtain a more or less intense flavor. It is recommended to store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. The main benefits one can derive from oolong teas stem from the significant content of minerals and antioxidant phenols present in the leaves. Some studies report that the daily intake of oolong tea can affect bone health, improving mineral concentration in this tissue and promoting a decrease in blood sugar levels due to the stimulating effect of phenols on insulin. Oolong teas generally also have a low concentration of caffeine. This characteristic makes them suitable for consumption at any time of the day, even for those who are more sensitive to this substance.
