This Alishan Oolong is sourced directly from the high mountain tea plantations around Alishan Mountain, located at an altitude between 1,300 and 1,600 metres. Limited sunshine hours, large temperature difference between day and night, irrigation from mountain spring water each make their own contribution to this tea’s charming buttery, vegetal aroma and elegant taste.
Alishan Oolong is a lightly oxidised and roasted Oolong variety that is both refreshing and pleasant. The dry tea leaves are tightly knotted, hemispherical, with large grains and stalks. After brewing, you will be able to see the leaves unfold into one bud with two distinct leaves, and to appreciate the fine blend of green and golden colours.
