Description of tea leaves:
Lee-San is located in central Taiwan; to be precise, it refers to the mountainous region where Hualien, Taichung, and Nantou Counties’ mountains meet. The Lee-San tea region reaches from the Hohuan Mountain range and Cuifeng to Lixing Industrial Road on a north-south axis. It spans Huagang, Fushou Mountain, and Lee-San all the way to Tianfu and Wuling, making it the tea production region at the highest altitudes in Taiwan (1,700m to 2,300m). The marked changes in climate in the alpine region and low temperature conditions year round enable tea leaves to grow slowly but steadily while surrounded by the clouds and fog. Tea in this region is harvested three times a year on average. The frequent snowfall makes for a refreshing, sweet and mellow tasting tea liquor. As long as everything goes perfectly, it’s not hard to find exquisite tea from this region which will simply astound your senses with its silky taste and lasting aroma.
Lee-San Honey Oolong tea is made from fresh tea leaves bitten by leaf hoppers. This honey oolong of outstanding quality is manufactured through the process of withering, fermentation, fixation, rolling, and roasting. As its name indicates, the natural flavor of honey will be apparent in the tea’s aroma, liquor, and leaves. The refreshing aroma will permeate your tea experience, as if you are in a garden.
