Description

This tea comes to us from the highest elevations of Farmer Zeng’s family farm in Shanlinxi, one of the best growing areas in Taiwan. Each afternoon misty clouds come in so thick you can hardly see anything for a while. It’s quite remarkable and very zen.

This is premium GaoShanCha* grown at the highest elevations of Shanlinxi where it is colder and takes longer to grow. Premium GaoShanCha has a heavier liquor that delivers a smooth drinking experience not to be missed. Not dry at all or bitter, but simply clean and refreshing. Explore this tea slowly with many infusions and you might catch such notes as butterscotch.
