Taiwan Jade Oolong Tea
A lightly oxidized Taiwanese oolong with a floral aroma, creamy mouthfeel, and a clean, refreshing finish.
Overview
Taiwan Jade Oolong Tea is a lightly oxidized oolong tea from Taiwan, prized for its fresh floral aroma, smooth texture, and naturally sweet finish. Often compared to high-mountain Taiwanese oolongs, Jade Oolong is known for clarity, balance, and elegance.
This tea is rolled into tight leaves that unfurl slowly during brewing, releasing layered flavor over multiple infusions.
Origin
Taiwan Jade Oolong is produced in Taiwan, where cool mountain air, misty conditions, and mineral-rich soil create ideal growing environments for lightly oxidized oolong teas. Taiwanese tea craftsmanship emphasizes careful oxidation control and precise rolling techniques.
