Origin: Chaiyi County, Taiwan

Processing highlights: Our Jade Oolong is lightly oxidised and subjected to a light \bake to finish the tea. Processing Jade Oolong is time-consuming with many distinct steps. It involves plucking, sun drying, fluffing, fixing and rolling in canvas to form the semi-ball shape (repeated many times). Being a winter picked tea my leaves are large.
