Alishan Oolong Tea

It has a refreshing taste similar to sencha green tea, and is characterized by a gentle, sweet aftertaste.

Its comforting sweetness warms you from the inside out, and its refreshing aroma soothes you.

Unlike Japanese sencha, Taiwanese tea uses large, unfolded leaves after steeping, allowing you to enjoy it for a second, third, and subsequent infusions.
If the tea leaves are of good quality, they are said to taste good even after the fifth infusion.
Taiwanese tea, which is made while retaining the shape of the tea leaves, is different from Japanese tea, which is made by steaming young buds.
Because the tea extract is slowly extracted, even after the 4th or 5th infusion...
You can enjoy a delicious tea with a rich flavor!
