Jinzhi Hongxin oolong, Taiwan, Pinglin 2023
Pinglin, a small city near Taipei in Taiwan, is renowned for producing Bao Zhong Oolong Tea, also known as Pouchong tea. Unlike other Oolongs, Baozhong is twisted in shape and lightly oxidized, giving it a unique character. Aged Bao Zhong, however, takes on a darker hue and offers a richer, more complex flavor.
This particular collection comes from a small, family-run farm that has been dedicated to traditional tea-making for generations. Now in their fifth generation, these farmers have mastered the craft of producing both fresh and aged Oolongs. Their unwavering commitment to quality and tradition ensures that each sip of Bao Zhong delivers a genuine taste of their heritage and expertise.
