Alishan High Mountain - 2oz

Alishan is the most well-known of all the High Mountain Oolongs of Taiwan. Sharing the name of the mountain where it grows, this tea is adored for its creamy complexion, combination of fruit flavors, and big character that spills out into the cup through these large green oolong leaves. 

Taiwanese High Mountain oolong grows up above 1000 meters, by definition, and is a relatively new way of crafting tea that started in the late 1960s. It has since become one of the most popular and enduring styles of oolong, with a wide-reaching influence.

This particular Alishan is floral, creamy, smooth and extremely satisfying. A little bit on the greener side of the oxidation, it is fragrant and elegant.
