Taiwanese Bi Lou Chun

Taiwanese Bi Lou Chun – Tender-Bud Green Tea with Oolong-Like Depth

Taiwanese Bi Luo Chun is a Taiwan-grown version of a famous green tea traditionally from China, admired for its striking appearance, bright color, strong fragrance and mellow taste. This lot shows all of the uniqueness that Taiwan's soil, air and elevation bring to the classic, giving retailers a distinctive twist on a well-known name.

Bi Luo Chun was brought to Taiwan by Chinese immigrants, and until then the island produced no green tea at all. The tea is made from tender young buds with one leaf, yielding a full-flavored cup with an intriguing character that sits between green tea and oolong: fresh, aromatic and satisfying. The aroma is fresh, strong and floral. The flavor is vibrant, grassy and mellow, accented by floral and mineral notes, and it finishes fresh and clean. Combining the vibrant freshness of green tea with the rounded depth of oolong, it is naturally rich in antioxidants and rewards multiple steeps. It shows well in a clear glass or gaiwan and also makes a refreshing iced green tea.
