This Hung Shui Oolong comes from a 1300m elevation in Shan Lin Shi mountains. Light Roast oolongs from Taiwan combine both – buttery creaminess of a High Mountain oolong and warming toastiness of a roasted tea. This is a perfect tea for those who are looking for a smooth and warm infusion that does not carry too much stimulants. Perfect all year round.
Origin: Shan Lin Shi, Nantou, Taiwan
Picking: Buds and two closest leaves
Energy: Warming
Flavour: Smooth and silky, nutty, toasty with a lively floral undertone. Gently warming and soothing brew.
