Jin Xuan Oolong

2026 Jin Xuan Oolong 金萱烏龍茶

Orchid | Sweet Milk | Pea Tips

Grown in the high mountain region of Alishan in Chiayi, Taiwan, this Jin Xuan oolong is prized for its naturally creamy character and gentle, floral aroma. Lightly oxidized and carefully crafted, it preserves the cultivar’s signature softness while expressing a fresh, elegant profile shaped by cool mountain air and mist.

This tea brews into a pale orchid gold liquor with a milky, smooth texture. Expect delicate notes of orchid and sweet milk, lifted by fresh pea tip brightness and a clean, refreshing sweetness that lingers on the palate.

Light, calming, and refreshing, Jin Xuan Oolong offers a soft, rounded profile with a lingering, sweet aftertaste, making it perfect for both daily enjoyment and quiet, restorative moments.
