Gaba oolong from Alishan Shou Gong (hand picking)

“Gaba Oolong” (handpicked) is made in the Alishan natural reserve (central Taiwan). During the manufacturing process, tea leaves passed through multistage vacuum fermentation.

Dry leaf: small, spherically twisted pellets of brown color. The aroma is warm, intensive, fruity-biscuit. The liquor is transparent, golden almond color.

The bouquet of brewed tea is bright and warm, fruity-biscuit, with herbal, caramel and berry nuances. The aroma is sweet, warm and deep. The taste is full-bodied and smooth, sweetish with delicate berry sourness, transforming into refreshing finish.

Brew tea with hot boiling water (90-95°C) in a porcelain gaiwan or a teapot of porous clay. The proportion is 5 g per 100 ml. The first infusion should last for 15-20 seconds. After that do short steeps (just for 8-10 seconds), increasing steeping time for each subsequent step, if necessary. You can repeat this method up to 9 times.
