Description

Wild high mountain plants are hand harvested from indigenous Ancestral Tea Plants dating to 1697 in Taiwan. Shan Cha's wild characteristics have never been able to be cultivated commercially making this a rare and unique tea. This amazing tea has a mild aroma of honey baked oats and a slight floral scent of wild rose. The tea liquor is perfectly balanced and smooth with fruit notes similar to white peaches. Multiple steepings are recommended and we always serve it in wine glasses.

This is a totally hand picked, hand processed, hand batch tea from only wild plants. Only a few kilograms are made each year in July and August. If you are a true tea lover or want to give a special gift to a tea lover this is the tea for you.

The 500 gm factory package is quite a value.

Very special

This tea is truly exceptional. To me, the flavor is more on the light side, like an afternoon tea, but very complex and intense. It does remind me of a really good wine, insofar as it is very harmonious and well balanced.

Pretty Amazing Tea

An extraordinary tea. Use a smaller than normal amount for a more classic tea flavor. Add a little more leaves and the tea adds some interesting tropical mango/ passion fruit notes. It is different than any other tea I have ever tasted and has a unique and wonderful flavor.
