Smooth and rich with red fruit and a touch of rose florals, we are sure this will be a great daily drinker for some of those that enjoy high elevation darker teas and those that love our Alpine series of teas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElevation: 1800m\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStatus: Agrochemical Free\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCultivar: Qinxin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOxidization: 99%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSeason: Summer 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMethod: Hand picked, processed on site, very small batch\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRegion: Chi Lai, Nantou\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommend Brewing Style:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGong Fu Style: 3-5g per 100ml, ~100C water, 30, 45, 60 then add 5-10 seconds steeps in gaiwan.
