Available Options

GABA Oolong from Nantou is out of stock. We recommend you to taste the GABA oolongs from another regions.

This GABA oolong is semi-oxidized tea from City Nantou, Nantou county, Taiwan. The total 2.6km Path connects the tea farms between Sungpoling and Tienchung Forest Park.

GABA tea contains a high percentage of Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid, which effects on the nervous system.

About two weeks prior to plucking, GABA oolong leaves are partially shaded, which causes increased production of glutamic acid.

During the oxidation-phase of production, all oxygen is replaced with nitrogen gas, whose presence causes the glutamic acid to be converted to Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid.
