2020 Autumn Taiwan Jin Xuan Oolong - Golden Leaf
Jin Xuan Oolong (金萱烏龍) is a popular new oolong tea species in recent years, made from Taiwan Jin Xuan tea. Jin Xuan tea was introduced in the 1980s after more than 40 years of improvement and cultivation in Taiwan. It has a very unique "milk aroma" and is hand-picked with “one-tip two-leaf” to ensure the superior taste and quality.
It is produced in the same environment as our 2018 Spring Alishan Oolong. It is named as Golden Leaf as its freshly processed leaves carry a light golden yellow color. This Jin Xuan Oolong gives a stronger milky & nutty note and at the same time carry the light and elegant floral fragrance.
