Our Ali Shan High Mountain Tea is from a tea farm in Shi Zhuo that has been farmed for over 40 years and is operated by the 2nd generation of the family.

Alishan tea is a high mountain oolong tea grown in the central mountains of Taiwan. This slower growth results in a deep flavor that is prized by many oolong enthusiasts
In Ali Shan, the sunny mountain slopes of the mountains provide abundant sunshine in the morning, which provides endless kinetic energy for the growth of tea; in the afternoon, the mountains rise and the sunlight diffuses warmly in the shielded clouds; soon, the cold mountain breeze brings a sudden drop in temperature, washing the tea Sauna.

The brewed tea soup is clear and golden, the taste is smooth and fresh, the throat rhyme is sweet and the throat is sweet, the elegant fragrance straight up the nose and eyebrows, it is refreshing.
