About this Product
Ruby Oolong is a special type of oolong tea produced in the Doi Mae Salong mountainous region in northern Thailand. This full-bodied oolong tea is deeply oxidized and slowly baked to bring out complex layers of cacao, raisins, and black cherry with a sublime, elegant structure. The soil in northern Thailand is soft and loamy, providing a concentration of nutrients not found in other oolong tea origins. This lends a unique sweetness and rich viscosity in mouthfeel. Ruby Oolong is an excellent introduction to the world of oolong tea with its deliciously sweet caramelized fruit and chocolate aromas that permeate the air as soon as it is brewed.
Use 212°F boiling water.
Briefly rinse the tea and discard rinse.
Proceed to infuse 1st brew for 45 seconds.
Infuse 2nd and 3rd brew for 30 seconds.
Repeat several times at 30 - 45 seconds, brewing until the flavor and aroma of the tea dissipates. As the tealeaves expand and unfurl, the brewing time may increase to coax out more aroma and flavor. This tea can be brewed several times in one session.

Wonderful Ruby

My two favorite teas are Rishi this is one of them
"My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE TEA, next to Four Seasons Spring. That's my SECOND FAVORITE!!" Received
...
this as a gift. This was my favorite tea for 4 months until I tried Rishi's Four Seasons Spring. Now I have two teas I'm obsessed with. Seriously, THE BEST TEA I've ever had. I'm not exaggerating. I've never paid hundreds a pound for tea, but I've recently tried $70 a lb. tea elsewhere, and it was terrible. I seriously cannot express in words how impressed I am with Rishi Tea. I've been drinking loose leaf for 20 years, even purchased samples of tea from Asia that costs $200 a pound. They were bad, compared to the teas I've tried here. I primarily stick to Oolongs. The depth and complexity of the Ruby Oolong is astounding! Layers of flavor. I love it when I can taste the flavors for minutes after I drink it. It feels rich, deep, warm, comforting...The flavors are prominent. I don't like weak tea or flavors I can barely taste. I can even taste it in the back of my throat when I smell the dried tea. Outstanding quality. if Rishi ever changes the quality of their teas, I swear I'd cry. LOL I am an official tea lover through and through. I'd rather drink this than eat dessert.

My Favorite Tea
I had this tea at a coffee shop on a trip to Chicago and it was immediately my new favorite tea. I found
...
out that the coffee shop gets the tea here. I'm not a fan of flavored tea or tea that's not truly tea. This is rich and smooth and holds up through a 3rd steeping.
