Taiwan Shan Lin Xi Tea (杉林溪茶)

Shan Lin Xi Tea is a remarkable gem from the Shan Lin Xi region of Zhushan Township, Nantou County, Taiwan, located at 1,200 to 1,800 meters. The area's mist and temperature variations create thick, fleshy leaves that produce outstanding tea. With its clear honey-green liquor and unique floral, fruity, and fir-like aromas, Shan Lin Xi ranks among Taiwan's top three high-mountain teas.

Core Features:

• Aroma and Taste: A fragrant, elegant scent with a mountain freshness and cedar wood notes. The taste is mellow and rich, with a lingering sweet aftertaste.
• Growing Environment: The cool climate allows for an exceptional accumulation of theanine in the leaves.
• Harvesting Season: Spring and winter teas are prized for their quality, while summer and autumn yields produce honey-scented black tea.

1. Warm the Pot: Rinse the tea ware with hot water.

3. Water Temperature and Volume: Pour in approximately 100 ml of boiling water.
