The embodiment of purity, a velvety elegance that perfectly combines the fragrance of fresh green leaves with scattered white flowers. Fresh and sweet, it’s hard to put it down. A gentle and pleasant tea to teleport you to misty mountains for your afternoon break!

The process of this tea includes light oxidation and light roasting. You can smell a mild creamy scent before and after brewing the tea. The tea liquid has a bright and clear light yellow-green color. You can taste a rich honeydew flavor, with a subtle jasmine scent. Then, a floral and sweet aftertaste. There is no bitterness and astringency, which is suitable for everyone. It is highly recommended to try out the cold brew Misty Mountain tea during summer.
Our Misty Mountain oolong is produced at a small family farm at an altitude of 1200 meters. Instead of using the traditional oolong tea-making method, which is heavy fermentation and heavy roasting, light fermentation and light roasting are able to bring out richer floral scents and flavor. High mountain climates with lower temperatures also have foggy and cloudy weather. Less sunlight reduces the catechin levels, the main compound responsible for the bitterness and astringency in tea.
There is a special crisp flavor that is unique to oolongs grown in high, foggy mountains that’s hard to describe in words. You have to give it a try yourself to experience it!
