Alishan Oolong tea is a typical tea of Taiwan High Mountain teas, produced in the Da Ali Mountain area of Jiayi County. This premium grade Taiwan Alishan tea comes from the tea garden where the sea level is around 1000 to 1600 metres. This premium oolong tea is handmade.
There are two types of Alishan Oolong Tea: Jinxuan and Qingxin Oolong Tea. Our typical premium Alishan Oolong Tea is a premium level of Jinxuan Oolong Tea.
The dry tea leaves are hemispherical in shape, tight and knotted. Their colour is between dark and yellowish green. The tea soup is honey golden.
The taste is mellower than a normal Alishan Oolong. It’s also rich in milky aroma. Combined with a fruity and floral aroma, it also contains high mountain charm. The tea feels smooth in the mouth, with an elegant, delicate and long-lasting aroma.

The Da Ali Mountain area is famous not only for its scenery but also for its tea. This premium grade Taiwan Alishan tea comes from the tea garden where the sea level is around 1000 to 1600 metres. The tea produced there is regarded as the best oolong tea in Taiwan. The reason is that the climate is cold, surrounded by clouds and fog in the morning and at night, and the average daytime is short. All these mean that the bitter substances in tea buds and leaves reduce while the sweeter flavours increase. Furthermore, due to the large temperature differences between day and night, the tea tree grows slowly, which leads to thicker layers of mesophyll in the tea leaves and higher pectin content. This gives Alishan Oolong Tea a long-lasting sweet taste. Many tea trees here are also irrigated with mountain spring water, that’s why Alishan Oolong Tea also has a very special, cold mountain aroma.

I’m not usually into milky oolongs but this one converted me. The creamy sweetness is natural, not artificial tasting at all, and there’s this lovely fruity undertone. Brews up a beautiful honey gold colour. Very moreish, I keep going back for more cups throughout the day.

Floral, umami, slightly sweet and really just full noise with the floral and umami notes. Depending on brewing method, it can also be somewhat minerally and thick.
