Toasty, Honeyed Nepal Oolong with Stone-Fruit Sweetness
Ruby Organic Oolong Tea is a rare, high-mountain Nepal oolong tea from Ilam, crafted at around 6,500 feet. Slowly oxidized and hand-rolled, it bridges the depth of black tea with the freshness of green, delivering a smooth, layered cup with toasted pecan, brown sugar, honey, oak, and ripe stone-fruit notes.
Why You'll Love It
- High-elevation clarity from slow summer growth in Ilam's cool Himalayan air.
- Signature flavor: toasted pecan, brown sugar, honey, oak, and nectarine-like stone fruit.
- Single-origin craft: organic smallholder lots, carefully withered, rolled, and oxidized.
- Gentle, steady energy: moderate caffeine for a smooth, focused lift without jitters.
Love nuanced, honeyed cups? Ruby is a beautiful step if you enjoy premium oolong teas and want to explore what high-mountain Nepal oolong can offer.
Brewing Guide
- Leaf: 1–1.5 tsp (2–3 g) per 8 oz
- Water: 185–195°F — start closer to 185°F for a softer cup; nearer 195°F for a richer, toastier profile
- Time: 2–3 min (shorter for lighter, longer for more body)
- Resteeps: 2–3 infusions; add 15–30 seconds each round
For more body, increase leaf rather than over-steeping. Ruby's toasty, honeyed character shines over multiple gentle infusions.
