Ep 27 - Red Thunder Oolong Is An Ocean Of Muscatel Grape Flavors And Aromas

The host and one of the tea importers from Trident Cafe and Teas, Jake Dirnberger, and filmmaker, Josh Hyde, steep an experimental oolong from the high-elevation tea gardens of Darjeeling, Red Thunder. This tea is one of Trident Cafe’s most popular teas. It’s withered and dried in multiple stages, resulting in a thick and heavy-bodied tea which abounds with traditional Darjeeling muscatel and floral aromas. Striking a balance between a more delicate first-flush and heavier and fully oxidized black Darjeeling, our Red Thunder has something for everyone. It is a highly enjoyable, infusable, and unorthodox tea not lacking in feeling or complexity. Find the highest quality teas at Trident Cafe and Teas.
