Ever Spring Oolong Tea - Si Ji Chun - 50 g

The "always spring" low oxidation oolong tea comes from the Nantou region of the island of Taiwan and owes its name to the area where its plants grow. 

At an altitude of about 1200 meters, in the north-east of this region, where the camellia si ji chun cultivar is found, which translated means "like spring", there are several streams that generate a fog that always maintains a pleasant cool temperature similar to that in spring and able to protect plantations from direct sunlight. 

These climatic conditions allow the leaf to give flavors and aromas in the cup that are already quite elaborate in themselves for which we choose to adopt a low oxidation level that preserves them as much as possible unaltered from the plant to the infusion. 

Due to its processing, this tea shows a dry leaf rolled up on itself which, however, already has a strong and quite pungent vegetable aroma.
