This type of tea has a famous history, but this form of art tradition is almost lost in the world. It’s story is deep and rich. The Goe family has been growing and processing oolong tea for hundreds of years. A newer generation led by grower Lin that has turned towards processing heavily oxidized teas versus traditional lightly oxidized High Mountain Oolong. Grower Lin learned about the art of Taiwanese black teas from Tea Master Aones who has won awards from Taiwan Tea Competition and the Development and Extension of Multiple Tea Products. He has now gone on to popularize the new breed of black tea TTES no. 18 and no. 21. Grower Lin has introduced innovative technology to their processing such as Aerodymaics during the withering process.
HOW TO BREW
Use 2 grams (1 teaspoon dried tea leaves) for 8 fl. oz. water in your favorite teapot or infuser (use bottled drinking water for best flavor, let boil and steep at 190F). Steep for 1.5 minutes. Leaves may be infused at least 3 times.
These are suggested brewing instructions. We encourage you to experiment and share your own brewing methods as you continue to grow in the tea culture. If you’re new to tea this is a good way to start.
