Only through careful selection of raw materials, masterful processing,
and special attention to detail at every stage of production does this oolong reveal its refined, harmonious taste. It grows at an altitude of 2,300 meters and above in the Lishan tea region (梨山, Li Shan) in the central-northern part of Taiwan. The tea leaves absorb the purity of the mountain air and become enriched with the soil’s rich mineral composition, giving the tea depth and noble complexity.
Characteristics:
• Aroma: delicate aroma of ripe fruits.
• Liquor color: clear and bright golden-amber color.
• Taste: rich and balanced, with a balance of sweetness and light astringency, notes of ripe fruits and a light honey sweetness.
• Aftertaste: distinctive, fruity and honey-like.
Processing Features:
• Medium fermentation (25−30%) — preserves freshness.
• Roasting level: medium roasting, emphasizing the natural sweetness of the leaves.
• Whole-leaf selection dense, tightly rolled leaves provide a multifaceted taste with each brewing.
About the Lishan Tea Region:
The tea region Lishan (梨山, Li Shan) is one of Taiwan’s most prestigious high-mountain tea regions, located in the central part of the island, on the border of Taichung and Hualien Counties. “Pear Mountain” — as its name translates, fruit was once grown here, but today it is a kingdom of elite high-mountain oolong.
• Altitude: 1,600−2,600 meters above sea level (the main plantations are at 1,800−2,200 m).
• Average temperature: 5−10 °C lower than in the valleys (around 20 °C in summer, with possible frosts in winter)..
• Mist and humidity: dense mists 200+ days a year protect the tea from direct sunlight, slow the growth of the leaves, and intensify the accumulation of aromatic compounds.
• Soil: rich in minerals, with good drainage.
Interesting fact:
The cold climate and temperature fluctuations make the tea leaves denser and richer, while slow growth enhances the floral and fruity notes in the finished tea.
