Four Season Oolong

Four Seasons Oolong-(Si Ji Chun) – This oolong is appropriately named because it’s harvested four times a year – spring, summer, fall and winter. It’s a low grown tea, rather than a high mountain tea like “A-Li-Shan” or “Dong Ding”. It’s grown in many regions of Taiwan. Our “Four Seasons Oolong” has a fresh, floral fragrance and a sweet, gentle, “lilacy” flavour. This is a very smooth oolong, “easy to drink” anytime of the day. It’s in between the “A-Li-Shan” and “Dong Ding” oolong. Its flavour is subtle enough to blend well with other flavours ie. roses, lavender, etc. The liquor is light amber in colour. The dried leaf is small and crunched, but opens into beautiful full leaves once infused. If you’ve never tried an oolong “Four Seasons” is an excellent one to begin with.
