This oolong comes from one of the highest elevation areas producing Taiwanese oolongs: Qi Lai mountain!

Unroasted, low oxidized high mountain oolong but made from Shui Xian! This cultuvar in Taiwan is very rare, forgotten.

This tea is extremely juicy, sticky, mineral and sweet. Thick taste and aroma but without unpleasant bitterness or astringency.

This is the best so-called high mountain oolong in our offer.

Originally packed in 75g vacuum bags. When you order 30g you will receive the tea packed in our standard zip-lock bag.

Highly recommended and very limited treat.

Description

Origin:  Qi Lai Shan, Nantou county, Taiwan,

Harvest: Spring 2024

Cultivar/Tree Variety:  Shui Xian – old kind of bush that comes from Wuyi, Fujian.

Temperature of water and amount of leaves: 100 C 5-7g/100ml.

Suggested brewing method: Yixing clay teapot or gaiwan of low capacity. First, you should pre-heat empty teapot/gaiwan and tea cups with boiling water. When the teapot is warmed, then you put the tea leaves in. After smelling hot and dry leaves in the pot, gently pour the boiling water to the pot.  First infusion should be very short- not more than 40 second. Second infusion should be little bit shorter than first one cause the leaves are more open then. We suggest to increase brewing time for 5-10 seconds in third and each next brewing.
