AliShan High Mountain Oolong

Our Alishan High Mountain Oolong comes from Alishan mountain, probably the most famous tea growing region in all of Taiwan.  

It's quite a magical place if you ask me, especially around the National Park area.  For me, Alishan holds a special place because my first taste of Taiwanese High Mountain Oolong was an Alishan while I was living nearby in Chiayi.  I've been drinking them ever since!   

Recently over the last few years I've spent quite a lot of time there meeting with Alishan farmers.  We work directly with two Alishan farmers and indirectly with a third who is an amazing roaster.  At present we are offering tea from a farm north of the Shi Zhuo Ecological Conservation area.  This area has a cool and moist climate where the necessary mist and sunshine take turns on the leaves transforming them into what can only be proper Taiwanese Gaoshancha.
