Description

It is very difficult to find tea that will be both affordable and of exceptional quality. With the mass quantity of jade oolong in the market (many of which aren’t even grown in Taiwan), the task has became even harder. Taiwan Sourcing has been working tirelessly to locate tea that is affordable but also appeals to the the sophisticated palate of jade oolong lovers worldwide. Luckily, we finally found a “True Gem” in this Shan Lin Xi winter harvested tea.

Shan Lin Xi has always been a source for exceptional high mountain tea, such as our Long Feng Xia Jade Oolong from 2014 Winter. With its deep mountain environment and misty weather, the tea trees produce leaves that contain a thick fragrant aroma when processed by a true master. Our “True Gem” Shan Lin Xi has a very strong but natural aroma when hot water was poured into the teapot, while having a tender full-bodied taste and mouth-feel.

We truly believe this tea will be a pleasant surprise to everyone who loves high mountain oolong! Happy drinking!
