Jade Oolong Tea – Loose Leaf Oolong from the Mountains of Nantou, Taiwan

Jade Oolong Tea is a light and floral loose leaf oolong tea produced exclusively in the high-altitude gardens of Nantou, Taiwan—a region revered for its premium oolong tea leaves.

This exquisite tea is lightly oxidised, undergoing only brief fermentation, which gives it a clean, fresh flavour that stands in contrast to more heavily oxidised oolongs. The rolled leaf structure, glimmering in shades of jade and olive, unfurls beautifully during steeping to reveal its delicate complexity.

The first infusion produces a golden-amber liquor with a vivid floral aroma, reminiscent of peach blossoms. Crisp, smooth, and lightly sweet, it offers an uplifting and refined cup that delights connoisseurs around the world.


Taste Profile

This light oolong yields a smooth, golden infusion with notes of white flowers, stone fruit, and a touch of green freshness.

Expect a clean, crisp mouthfeel and a lingering floral finish, with none of the roasted or earthy qualities found in darker oolongs.

If you enjoy Jade Oolong Tea, you may also like Jin Xuan Oolong, Ti Kuan Yin Oolong, or Jasmine Oolong.


Origin

This select oolong tea is grown in the misty mountains of Nantou County, Taiwan, where high elevations and ideal microclimates allow for slow, flavourful leaf development.

Crafted from high-quality oolong tea leaves, the production involves gentle rolling and minimal oxidation, preserving the bright green character and floral aromatics of the leaf.

It’s this careful balance of technique and environment that makes Jade Oolong such a prized choice for lovers of light Taiwanese teas.
