Product Overview
Origin: Taiwan
Type: Oolong
Description: It is said that in the old days, the Queen of England was amazed by this type of tea's unique flavor and named it "oriental beauty." In Taiwan, it is called champagne oolong tea, pekoe tea, oolong tea or Pong Feng tea. The harvest season is limited to the summer. Bitten by the tea green leafhopper (Jacobiasca Formosana), the leaves do not grow after the summer. The leaves can be fermented and baked into rich, yet sweet tea with a honey or ripe fruit aroma. The unique cultivation process is essential to its quality.
The flavor is delicate, a sweeter floral flavor, and even a tad like honey towards the end of the sip. This competition grade Oriental Beauty tea has an incredible natural flavor. This is without a doubt the best tea in the world. It has an incomparable flavour and fragrance born of the unique area in which it is grown and made. It is hard to do the tea justice with a description but you can detect apricot, muscat grape, geranium, elder, wildflower honey, sandalwood, rose, caramel, gardenia and lilac to name but a few.
