Taiwan, formerly known as Formosa, produces mostly oolong teas. Oolong tea is not black tea, nor green tea. It falls between the two. Plucking comes later in the season producing a larger leaf than green. During production, the leaves are left to oxidize until the edges are a golden brown. This produces a brew that is more pronounced than green with none of black tea's astringency.

Observe the coloration change of the leaf as it turns from green to red-tipped during its infusion. The liquor is a golden in colour with a very aromatic bouquet and sweet, buttery taste. Enjoy this tea at all your special occasions.
