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

As expected for a yushan, the taste is very subtle, compared to alishan or other flavor bomb oolongs. But this tea is so luxurious and smooth. It sits on the pallet so well and there’s a nice sweetness and tartness if you brew it with the right water, time, and temp. I even cold brewed it in the fridge and drinking it gave me maximum sweetness like guava and blackberries! 10/10 yushan
High Mountain Royal Yushan Oolong
Wonderful, full floral and sweet flavor that lingers on the tongue and leaves that last multiple steeps gongfu-style. Experienced this tea guided by Leo's knowledge and am so happy to be introduced to this delightful oolong. Highly recommend Leo's private tastings and this tea!
