This tea is very nice and provides a good, everyday, source of silver needles at an affordable price. It has the characteristic silver needles bouquet and flavour and is good for more than one steep, which makes it even better value.
I lke Assam tea, because it is robust, but I often find it too malty and one dimensional. This tea however, whilst having hints of maltiness, has floral and dried fruit overtones combined with an overall feeling of smoothness on the palate. I bought another batch as soon as I had tasted a cup or two. So I would reccomend it, have a nice day!
Alishan High Mountain Eco Roasted Beauty is a delightful tea. It has a depth of flavours and each steep is wonderful. The flavour profile ranges of light to rich. Another one of Alishan High Mountain's exceptional teas.
The Alishan High Mountain Eco Morning Mist is a light tea yet with a great depth of flavour. Each sip invites one to take a second sip. It has a lovely, light golden colour. Such a pleasant cup to tea to start one's day with.
This is such a great tea. It has great flavour and a really charming bouquet.
One of the very best, and it is still good on a subsequent steep
The Organic Alishan High Mountain Spring tea is such a delight to drink. It is smooth and complex. It initially mildly tastes of butter and nuts but then morphs into a slightly sweet floral note. This tea is the opposite of boring as it has so many layered tastes.
The High Mountain Eco Spring is another one of Alishan's delightful teas. I love watching the full-sized leaves unfurl as it steeps in my glass teapot and the resulting taste is both light and complex - buttery and smooth.
The Alishan Mountain Eco Beauty is a truly exquisite tea. It is a rare combination of being light and full flavoured at the same time. The underlying note of honey imparts a very mild sweetness. This has become my new favourite tea.
It took me a while to settle on my favourite way of brewing this tea.
I put 5 grams of dry leaves into the vessel of the Terroir standard tasting set and do a series of 85 C infusions lasting 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 seconds.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this pouch of tea. Every steep gave me the buttery, smooth, vegetal drink that I love. So fresh!
A Really Elegant, Light, and Subtle Green Tea
This is another great selection by Charity. Thanks to her amazing ability to source delightful oolong teas she has converted me to oolong and to Taiwanese tea. I used to buy expensive high end Japanese green teas, and they can be superb, but after a gap of a couple of years, I recently re- tasted a Hojicha Yabukita ( which used to be one of my absolute favourite Japanese green teas) and I was shocked to find that I far preferred this Lung Ya, which is almost at the other end of the taste spectrum among fine Green teas. Of course there’s room for many different expressions of Green tea, and we can all have a predisposition to one kind or another, and want different tastes at different times. Lung Ya is almost ethereal in comparison to the earthier, more vegetal Japanese Green teas, but despite its light body and floral bouquet it is very satisfying and has a surprisingly long finish. It’s good value for this quality, but don’t expect a full bodied punchy, earthy, or vegetal Green tea. It’s lightness is part of its charm
We highly recommend this absolute gem of a tea. It tastes rather like a cross between a regular oolong and a red ( black) tea, combining the best features of both. Smooth, well balanced, with good mouth feel and a long, very satisfying finish. It promotes the sense of well-being and mild mood elevation that we have only got from very good oolongs. The ageing and the preparation process give it richness, character and complexity.
