Tung Ting tea is named after the mountainous Taiwanese region where it grows. Oolong tea is a part fermented tea, with the strength of a black tea but the aromatic flavour of a green, and Tung Ting is one of the finest. These teas sell in Taiwan for hundreds of dollars - slightly more pricey than your average cuppa, but worth every penny.
Ingredients:

Drink pure. tea temple - 1 per person. brew for 3 minutes, best with water at 80 degrees C. (If you don't have a fancy kettle or thermometer to hand, grabbing the kettle just before it boils will do the trick!)

Teapigs is a British company. They are using only quality real tea. By quality real tea, we mean whole leaf tea, whole leaf herbs, whole berries, whole spices and whole flowers. Not the dusty stuff you’ll find in regular paper teabags.
It's all about the flavour. The tea in regular tea bags has been squashed, chopped and manhandled so, by the time it reaches your cup, almost all the flavour is lost. We don't think that's very nice.
The whole leaves, berries, herbs, flowers and spices in Teapigs tea temples have been handled gently and with love, to maintain every drop of that precious flavour.
Teas worthy of worship deserve their own temple. Teapigs teas come in special tea “temple” – a biodegradable mesh bag that gives the whole leaves lots of room to infuse. Looks pretty too. Loose tea without the fuss.
Teapigs racked up 60 Great Taste Awards over the years!
