Dongding, also spelled Tung-ting, is an oolong tea from Taiwan. The original leaves were taken from a much older tea plant in China's Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province. The name Dongding means "Frozen Summit", which is the name of the mountain in Taiwan on which the original tea plants taken from the Wuyi Mountains were planted. For many oolong lovers, Dong Ding is considered the premium Taiwanese oolong. The original Dongding is from the Lugu region of Nantou County in central Taiwan. However, this area has long been used for tea cultivation. Production is now scarce and quality varies. Many Dongding teas are now produced from other Nantou high mountain teas and follow the traditional Dongding production method. Dongding is typically medium roasted (about 30%).
