Tan Huong is a tea cooperative in the northeastern Vietnam's Thai Nguyen province. Vietnam processes and exports mostly black and green teas. With the assistance of a Taiwanese tea specialist, Tan Huong produces this oolong. Like
Zealong, Tan Huong Oolong is presumably created in the image of
Dong Ding. The aromas of its dry and wet leaves are evocative of Dong Ding but the flavors of the steeped tea are untypical. The tea has slight astringency and mild licorice sweetness. In other words, it is uniquely Vietnam oolong.
