High Mountain Oolong Teas

 

Taiwanese High Mountain Oolong teas, grown at elevations above 1,000 meters, are prized for their exceptional clarity, floral aroma, and buttery, lingering sweetness. The cool, misty climate and dramatic day-night temperature shifts slow leaf growth, concentrating flavour and aroma compounds. Hand-picked and expertly crafted using traditional oxidation and rolling techniques, these teas balance complexity with elegance. What sets them apart is their signature “qing xiang” (light fragrance) profile, refined yet vibrant. Each infusion reveals layered notes such as orchid, cream, and mountain air, offering a uniquely smooth, meditative experience that reflects Taiwan’s terroir and artisanal tea culture.
