ALISHAN HIGH MOUNTAIN OOLONG


Today’s Alishan teas are still produced according to the methods established by the early planters. Fresh leaf is hand plucked
and immediately wilted in the sun for a period of time. Next, they are placed in baskets and shaken to bruise the leaves and
release the enzymes that produce flavor. This is followed by a period of oxidization after which the leaves are laid out to dry
and finally fired. The result is nothing short of a spectacular Oolong - an almost perfect example of the best the Alishan
region has to offer. Brew a pot today and experience what some tasters refer to as the “champagne of Taiwan”! Enjoy.
