Nature's intervention creates "five color tea".
The champagne of oolongs, this Taiwanese treasure possesses the complexity and elegance of a master craftsman's touch. Harvested only during June or July, this tea is dependent upon the presence of green leafhoppers. The leafhoppers nibble at the tea leaves starting the oxidation process on the tea plants. Ultimately, it delivers honey characteristics and wisps of sweet smoke with a satisfying mouthfeel.
