GABA oolong

$15.00

our single-origin GABA oolong is grown on a fully organic farm where no pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers ever touch the soil. the leaves undergo a special oxidation process under a nitrogen atmosphere. this unique method results in high levels of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), an amino acid known for its calming effects and ability to improve sleep.

the fully oxidized leaves offer a dark infusion bursting with sweet, fruity flavors and an irresistible aroma in each rich, full-bodied cup. this brew is excellent shared and is perfect for re-steeping throughout the day and into the evening.

the tea undergoes a meticulous three day processing period, highlighted by extended longer solar withering following harvest, then three sessions of alternating oxidation in vacuum-sealed (nitrogen atmosphere) steel cylinders and tumbling in large bamboo basket cylinders. afterwards, leaves are heated, rolled and dried.
