OOLONG TEA: Bagua Shan Siji Chun 2024 - light roast, Taiwan

Bagua Shan Siji Chun ~ light roast
Oolong tea, Taiwan

Flavour: sweet, creamy, sugary, floral - light & silky
These leaves come from the Siji Chun Wu Long tea plant cultivar. They were harvested on 27 March 2024 in Bagua Shan, Nantou County, Taiwan. Following oxidation, compression, rolling and curing, they are gently roasted at the end of processing. The result is a light and silky-soft infusion with moreish notes of sweetened cream, caramelised sugar and flowers. 

The Wang Family has been involved in Taiwanese tea for many generations. The company is now run by brother and sister duo Joshua and Ivy Wang, who have a passion for sustainable and environmentally friendly practices and sharing the best tea that Taiwan has to offer.

Preparation: Steep for 3 minutes at 90°. Four + infusions. 

Infusions: specialty tea leaves can all be steeped at least twice, and often more, so each 3 gram serve (150 mls - a standard teacup size), will give you two cups ('infusions') if you steep the leaves twice. On the back of your pouch under 'Steep', you can find the number of infusions for your tea.

If you infuse your leaves at least twice, your pouch will give you the following cups of tea (or more if you infuse your leaves more times):

50 grams - 33 cups
100 grams - 66 cups
200 grams - 133 cups
