Rare Variety From Taiwan - Wu Yi Oolong

Wu Yi Tea is a specific type of tea introduced to northern Taiwan from the tea region in Wu Yi, Fujian province in the 1970s. Wu Yi Oolong is usually heavily fermented resulting in a sweet taste that is strong and powerful.

The flavor of this tea is mellow, rich and smooth with a long lingering sweetness. There is an evident and unusual fruit and honey aroma along with a rich, complex mouthfeel that finishes with a gradual unfolding of a cooling sensation. It also induces salivation as the tea passes through the throat. The special aspect of Taiwan Wu Yi Oolong tea from Fang Gourmet Tea is the natural fruity taste that is cool and refreshing.

With the traditional method of making oolong tea, the Taiwan Wu Yi Oolong is produced from the bud and the leaf. There is no damage throughout the process, resulting in tea leaves that resemble flower blossoming after brewing. It is a truly excellent product.
