Origin: 1400-1500 m. above sea level, Shan Lin Xi, Nantou, Taiwan
Harvest: Summer 2022, roasting: spring 2023
Cultivar: Qing Xing (Chin Shin)
This amazing hong oolong from Shan Lin Xi mountain was handpicked during hot summer. Leaves are stunning – the farmer left the twigs so when the leaves are open you can admire not damaged complete bud and 2-3 leaves on the same twig. Beautiful picking standard.
This particular tea is exceptionally clean and balanced. We can say elegant. Oxidation of those tightly rolled leaves is high but roasting is medium. When you taste this tea first two infusions are so soft and yellow but each next will be darker and more interesting. The tea is full of fresh honey-like notes enriched by ripe fruits flavours (stone fruits like peaches, cherries, litchi) and something between flowers and wood.
It’s like a mix of Oriental Beauty with roasted oolong.
