Jade Oolong Tea 文山包種清茶


Tea Master Lily's select Jade Oolong Tea, formally known as "Fragrant Bao Chung" oolong, is the choice oolong among green tea lovers. Cultivated in the northeastern part of the island between Taipei and the Pacific Ocean, the rich soil is accompanied by the clean ocean breeze streaming into the tea plantation. Harvested when the delicate white tea flowers bud to maximize the floral scent, this limited edition batch was plucked and processed fresh in November of 2020.  Prized for use in the double-cup gong fu preparation method, Jade Oolong Tea is perfect for tabletop teapot play because as you pour and spill tea the aroma diffuses about delightfully.  Since scent permeates taste, the sweet nectar flavor layered with a vegetal aftertaste will bring tea devotees an appreciation for the beauty in blooming nature.
