This Teas of Taiwan Gift Box contains the following Taiwanese teas:

Qing Xin Gan Zi is a uniquely floral green tea from Taiwan that is harvested in early spring from the Qing Xin Gan Zi sub-varietal. Large twisted leaves produce a bright, highly aromatic liquor. The clean vegetal flavours have pronounced fruity, floral and sweet notes.

Organic Milk Oolong is an award-winning tea grown from a ‘Jin Xuan’ cultivar in Mingjian Township, Nantou County, Taiwan. This tea is not flavoured but has a natural mild milky aroma, mouthfeel and taste. The clean liquor has light and sweet notes of cream and almonds.

Shan Lin Xi Long Feng Xia is an exceptional tea from Shanlinxi, an area famed for producing some of the world’s best oolong teas. Grown at an altitude of 1,800m, the large leaves produce a bright and smooth liquor with wild floral notes and a citrus edge.

Dong Ding Oolong is a classic high mountain oolong from Meishan in Taiwan. It undergoes multiple baking to produce a smooth floral liquor. The complex profile has a floral and toasty edge with notes of exotic flowers, spices, caramelised nuts and wild honey.

Deep Baked GABA Oolong is an award-winning tea grown and processed in Taiwan for high content of the GABA molecule. It has been heavily roasted, so it has a comforting toasty and nutty flavour with a tart fruity edge.

San Xia Mi Xiang Hong Cha is a smooth tea from San Xia District made from hand picked Qing Xin cultivar leaves. Specially selected and crafted for an attractive Mi Xiang character with notes of acacia honeycomb. It produces a malty liquor with a lingering sweet and mineral aftertaste.
