Dong Ding Oolong Tea Origin and History Region: Dong Ding Oolong Tea originates from the Dong Ding Mountain area in Nantou County, Taiwan. The name "Dong Ding" means "Frozen Summit" or "Icy Peak," referencing the mountain's cool climate, which is ideal for growing high-quality tea. History: The cultivation of Dong Ding Oolong dates back to the 19th century when tea plants were brought from Fujian Province, China, and adapted to the local conditions in Taiwan. Since then, it has become one of Taiwan's most famous and traditional oolong teas.   Processing Semi-oxidized: Dong Ding Oolong is a semi-oxidized tea, with oxidation levels typically ranging from 15% to 30%, depending on the desired flavor profile. Traditional Methods: The tea leaves are hand-picked and processed using traditional methods. This includes withering, bruising, rolling, oxidation, and roasting. The roasting process is particularly important in developing the tea's characteristic flavor. Brewing Instruction:
