New Oriental Beauty

Yunnan Dong Fang Mei Ren 2023

Enchanting exotic beauty with a rich, luscious taste and aroma reminiscent of tropical fruits, blossoms, citrus and honey with an endless, fresh, sweet aftertaste.

This incredibly intoxicating Beauty from mainland China surprised us not only with its taste but also with its origin in the Yunnan province. The gardens are located at an altitude of over 1500 m above sea level and our Beauty is harvested from the Ruan Zhi oolong variety. Although this type of oolong originally came from China, we call it new because the name Oriental Beauty was adopted in Taiwan.

You can order New Oriental Beauty in a tasting set with our True Oriental Beauty from Taiwan. Together they make a wonderful pair, True Oriental Beauty with heavier notes of fruit and precious woods and New Oriental Beauty with lighter fresh notes of fruit and flowers, both with an endlessly sweet, intoxicating aftertaste.
