Northern Taiwan's Elegant Fragrance
🌿 Origin
Wenshan Pouchong Tea is produced in the Wenshan region of New Taipei City, Taiwan, primarily in the tea districts of Pinglin, Shiding, Shenkeng, Xindian, Xizhi, and Pingxi.

✨ The Unique Appeal of Pouchong Tea
Wenshan Pouchong Tea is the lightest in fermentation among Taiwan's oolong teas, with a fermentation level of approximately 8–12%. It belongs to the light-fragrance oolong category and is also known as "Qingcha" (clear tea). This tea emphasizes aroma—when brewed, it releases a fresh, uplifting fragrance that fills the air. The gentle roasting process adds depth, resulting in a smooth, sweet flavor. It holds the esteemed reputation in Taiwan's tea culture: "Northern Taiwan is known for Pouchong, while Southern Taiwan is famous for Dongding."
🌱 Organically Grown, Hand-Picked
This tea is produced in the high-quality environment of the Pinglin tea region, made from the Qingxin Oolong tea cultivar, a small-leaf variety known for its rich aroma. Organic fertilizers are used, ensuring a healthier, safer tea. The tender leaves—one bud with two leaves—are hand-picked. When brewed, the tea not only releases a fresh fragrance but also reveals the beautiful, fully expanded leaves.
