MeiShan Oolong Tea 梅山乌龙茶

Grown in the high mountains of Mei Shan (near Alishan), it offers a smooth, mellow cup with light yellow liquor, featuring subtle floral hints like chrysanthemum, and provides a great value compared to more famous neighbors

Jin Xuan cultivar was discovered in 1981 by “Father of the Taiwan tea” –Dr. Zhen Zhe Wu who was the former president of TRES (Tea Research and Extension Station). It took 21 years of researching & developing to perfect this tea strain. It was a big part of “re-creating the tea market” in the 1980s and Jin Xuan tea became very popular during this time. Since then Jin Xuan Oolong tea has become one of the main tea strains in Taiwan. It is a thick tea leaf with a unique and natural, light milky fragrance and a buttery, creamy taste. The tea farming regions in Nantou County are the most famous areas for growing Jin Xuan tea. This Jin Xuan is from a higher elevation tea garden in the Mei Shan region.
