Nestled within the mist-covered mountains of Lugu Township in Nantou County, this exceptional Jin Xuan Oolong showcases one of Taiwan’s most celebrated tea cultivars. Known as Tai Cha No. 12 (Jin Xuan), the cultivar is renowned for its naturally creamy character and remarkably smooth texture. Contrary to popular belief, authentic Jin Xuan Milk Oolong does not derive its flavour from added milk or artificial flavourings. Instead, its distinctive profile is a natural expression of the cultivar itself, carefully cultivated in Taiwan’s cool mountain climate and crafted by skilled tea masters. The tightly rolled leaves unfurl into a luminous golden-green liquor, revealing elegant aromas of fresh cream, sweet butter and spring flowers. Delicate notes of orchid, vanilla and young sugarcane emerge with each infusion, supported by a velvety mouthfeel and a lingering sweetness that gently coats the palate. Meticulously crafted in the traditional Taiwanese style, this tea offers a beautiful balance between freshness, floral elegance and the signature creamy richness for which Jin Xuan is prized. Each infusion unfolds new layers of complexity, making it equally rewarding for both newcomers and experienced tea enthusiasts. A refined and comforting Oolong that captures the essence of Taiwan’s celebrated tea craftsmanship.
