Taiwanese Semi-green Tea Formosa Jin Xuan Milk Oolong 75 g

Product description Taiwanese Semi-green Tea Formosa Jin Xuan Milk Oolong 75 g

Jin Xuan oolong and Jade oolong were discovered in 1981 by the "Tea research and extension station". At that time, TRES was conducting experiments and asked a farmer to grow it for them. The farmer was curious, so he started to grow this tea without TRES permission in larger quantities and tried to offer it to people. When people drank it, they asked. What kind of tea is this? But the farmer didn't know anything about tea so he was unable to answer. This is a quite exceptional Oolong for repeated long term steeping.

Color after brewing: yellow-gold.
Flavor: buttery, slightly sweet.
Aroma: pleasant, long lasting.
Country of origin: Nantou, Taiwan
Group: Jin Xuan (Milk Oolong), a lightly roasted, hand-picked Oolong.

Recommended preparation of tea in a 0.6L teapot:

first infusion

• pour 1 - 1.5 tablespoons of tea into the teapot, so that the bottom of the teapot is roughly covered
• fill with boiled water at 60°C
• do not allow to infuse for 3-5 minutes, during taste and let it infuse longer or strain according to your preference

second infusion

• again pour boiled water over the tea, this time 60-70°C
• leave to infuse for about 5-7 minutes (more or less according to your taste) and once the infusion suits your taste, strain

third infusion

• again pour boiled water over the tea, this time at 70-80°C
• let it infuse for about 7-10 minutes (more or less according to your taste) and once the infusion suits your taste, strain

.

 Note on preparation: the times given are approximate and it is good, for example, to pour off a little tea after a certain time of infusion, taste it and, if necessary, strain the whole infusion or let it continue to infuse. The tea should be to your liking, and if you prefer stronger teas, for example, use more leaves or extend the steeping time. Don't be afraid to experiment with the tea, it's the only way to discover the flavours that suit you best.
