Oolong Gaba Ruby tea from Taiwan - 500 g

This Gaba Ruby oolong tea from Taiwan, characterized by a medium-high degree of oxidation, comes from one of the most famous cultivars of the island, Ruby #18, and has high concentrations of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

 The oolong in question has become very famous because of this amino acid which is generally found in many teas but which, thanks to skilful processing, has much higher than average concentrations here. 

The reason why this amino acid is of great interest is its relaxing properties on our body: it is in fact a neurotransmitter whose main function is to inhibit some neuronal signals and participate in the formation of some hormones.

 These teas can therefore prove to be good allies in our diet as well as having very interesting flavors and aromas. 

Due to the fairly high oxidation, we will find in this oolong notes of wood, cocoa and spices as well as pleasant toasted hints.
