CHARACTER

Pear Mountain (Lishan) tea is considered the king of Taiwanese high mountain teas. The gardens at 1800-2400m are harvested only twice a year, so the natural yield limitation results a very rich and complex tea due to the nutrients accumulated in the leaf and buds. In recent years, the region’s black teas have become increasingly popular, producing a fruity-sweet, strong but not bitter brew. Slightly resinous, honeyed, orangey, classic Ruby Black in a darker, higher quality version. Oil thick, concentrated, sweet, bergamot, slightly resinous, strongly spicy, highly refined tea for fans of the Assam style! Especially for lovers of classic black teas. You can also order it in its original 250g pack.
