“Taiwanese green Tie Guan Yins are few and far between, possibly because they’re hard to grow. Given my love of Anxi Tie Guan Yin and gaoshan and my wonderful experience with What-Cha’s Lishan Tie...” Read full tasting note
High-Mountain Oolongs are Taiwan’s most famous and ubiquitous type of tea, earning worldwide recognition over the years as “the tea” of Taiwan.
