Hehuan Mountain Oolong (合歡山烏龍)


Available Options

Hehuan mountain oolong is a rare oolong tea from the biological tea farm in Mountain Hehuan (Hehuanshan), a 3,416 meters high mountain in Central Taiwan in between Nantou and Hualien.

Production of this oolong combines the traditional oolong tea making with production of Oriental Beauty tea, when buds and leaves are bitten by the Jacobiasca formosana (one kind of insect live in tea farms) and then the tea will have a special sweet taste. Because of this insect, farmers don’t use any insecticide. As a result, tea is totally natural and organic.

This is very special for its taste and limited kind of tea.

Leaves: delicately hand-rolled into small, green-yellow coloured balls.

Taste

Tea has rich floral and fruit flavors with light fresh fragrance

Brewing

You can use any kind of tea pot, but clay tea pot suits much better.

Warm up the tea pot with the boiling water, put 2-3 grams of tea, and pour small amount of the boiling water into the tea and pour out, then pour 225-250 ml of boiling water and cover tea pot for three minutes before serving.

Boiling temperature – 85-95°C (185-203°F). You can use this amount of tea 3 to 4 times.

The tea leaves come unrolled for full flavor.

Additional information

This is one of the traditional ways of brewing. Depending on individual gustatory preferences you can vary brewing time from 35s to 5 minutes.

You can also use Chinese traditional way of brewing - spilling, using Gaiwan and brew for 3-5 second each time.

Please note, that it is natural tea with high content of active elements, including caffeine, and minerals and some unusual feelings could appear. In that case we recommend decrease quantity of dry leaves and brewing time.

I have tried many teas from Taiwan Leaf Tea. This has to be the best so far. What an amazing tea! On first brew, the floral fragrance is smells so good and tastes smooth. On subsequent brews, tea smells of hints of cooked rice and has a fullness to its taste. Hints of pear and peach in taste, and the dry sweetness at the back of the throat lasts so long. I keep breathing in through my mouth and exhaling through my nose to get that sweet aftertaste and fragrance. Hope this tea doesn’t run out of stock. It’s going to be a permanent item in my tea cabinet.
