Organic Winter Jade Mountain Oolong

The Winter pick from our friend on Jade Mountain is a great example of a tea made from the thicker leaves of cold winter weather growing conditions. Richer vegetal, stronger florals and a thicker brew reward those that get this one. 

The mountains just outside of Jade Mountain National Park have become an up and coming tea-growing region of Taiwan. It is also an area that does not have a lot of organic agriculture, which is why we were so happy to find a rare certified organic garden in the area!

We have been blown away by the exceptional teas being produced from this garden as we keep buying more of them!
