Oolong Dong Fang Mei Ren "Oriental Beauty", from Taiwan
One of Taiwan’s rarest and most cherished teas, Dong Fang Mei Ren — also known as “Oriental Beauty” — is a true work of art. Handcrafted from start to finish using a traditional method that blends elements of both oolong and white tea production, it embodies refinement and exceptional quality.
Its distinctive character comes from a fascinating natural process: during growth, the tea leaves are gently nibbled by tiny leafhoppers, which trigger a unique transformation in the plant. This results in a tea that is entirely organic and highly prized by connoisseurs around the world. Produced only from carefully selected leaves and with painstaking attention to detail, Oriental Beauty represents the elegance, heritage, and artisanal mastery of Taiwan’s tea culture — a luxurious choice for the true tea enthusiast.
