When thinking about how to introduce Taiwanese Oolong to someone new, this is the one tea you must try. Incredible aroma, flavor and after taste. 

The name forever spring comes because of how the tea can be harvest all year long. Tea that can be harvest all-year tends to sacrifice some quality with it. But not this one, since this tea is made by one of our best Taiwanese tea farmers. Even everyday tea like this is incredibly tasty. Definitely the best tea to enjoy for any tea lovers. 

Origin: Nantou, Taiwan

Notes: Honey, Orchid, Nutty

It has a honey and vegetal aftertaste that lingers for a few minutes.

Overall it's a remarkable oolong to have for such an affordable price!

With a proper brewing, this oolong can be brewed for at least 10 times. Use a lower temperature (around 195F) to bring out more of the fruitiness of this tea or brew with higher temperature if you like more of a complex and spicier version of this oolong.

As delicate and airy as high mountain oolong gets!

Because this tea is so soft and delicate, brew this tea on its own in a dedicated session to get the best out of the leaves.

Yushan is a lesser known region in Taiwan, since most of the Yushan area is a protected national park where tea cultivation is not allowed. This particular garden is just outside the national park but in the same gorgeous, high elevation environment. No pesticides or chemical fertilizers are used in the garden, which really captures the essence of the high mountain environment. 

Winter Harvest:

This super elegant Yushan is made from a special winter harvest called dong pian, or winter petal, which only happens when the weather conditions allow the tea bushes to sprout twice during the winter. Dong pian harvests don't happen every year, and when they do happen, the yield is lower but the leaves are more concentrated and sweet. 

Notes: Sweet, Delicate, Airy

Origin: Yushan, Taiwan

This hand-picked oriental beauty is special because its processed of oxidation relies a lot on the green leafhopper. These tea green leafhoppers love to bite into the leaf. The tiny bites don't necessarily cause bite holes. Instead, the plant actually releases a natural sweetness enzyme to attract predators of the leafhopper. 

As a result of the higher oxidation, this oolong tastes between an oolong and a black tea. You'll get the floral and nutty flavor, and also a rounder, honey after-taste similar to a black tea. Overall a nice relaxing tea to have after meals. 

Origin: Nantou, Taiwan

Notes: Floral, Malty, Honey

It is uncommon to have an Oriental Beauty leave pressed into a cake. Oriental Beauty tastes so good when it has been aged.

Oriental Beauty is one of Taiwanese most famous tea because of how it was oxidized naturally by getting help from the surrounding bugs. Green leafhopper bites into the leave causing the tea leaves to release a natural sweetness to attract predators of the attacking leafhopper. Naturally, this tea develops a very unique caramel sweetness you don't normally get from a Taiwanese Oolong. 

Origin: Nantou, Taiwan

Harvest: 2018
