Honey Oolong Tea
Natural Honey & Fruit Aroma, Mellow and Enchanting
🌿 Origin
Honey Oolong Tea is produced in the Nantou tea region of Taiwan and has become one of Taiwan's most popular specialty oolong teas in recent years. The Nantou tea region, with its mild, humid climate, is ideal for tea cultivation and the proliferation of the small green leafhopper, providing excellent natural conditions for the production of Honey Oolong Tea.
🦗 The Secret of Honey Aroma – The Small Green Leafhopper
The production process of Honey Oolong Tea is complex. The tea leaves must first be bitten by the small green leafhopper (Jacobiasca formosana) before undergoing the traditional oolong tea roasting process. When the leafhopper bites the tea leaves, the plant activates a natural defense mechanism, undergoing a chemical transformation and natural fermentation, giving rise to a natural honey fragrance. To encourage the presence of these leafhoppers, tea farmers generally avoid using pesticides, which also results in healthier tea leaves.
