Ali Shan High Mountain – Wholesale Lightly Roasted Taiwanese High-Mountain Oolong

Ali Shan is one of Taiwan's most celebrated scenic areas, famous for its striking beauty, fresh mountain air, clear mountain passes and its narrow-gauge forest railway. The same mountain produces some of the most prized high-mountain oolongs in the world, and Ali Shan High Mountain is a premium example from this origin.

This oolong is hand-picked and hand-processed, with a deep jade leaf color and a deep floral aroma. Some stems are left on, adding further depth to both aroma and flavor, and a light roast gives the fragrance a deeper, darker floral character. The dry leaf is hand-rolled and jade-colored. In the cup, the aroma is deep, dark and floral, the flavor is light, buttery and sweet, the mouthfeel is rich and smooth, and the finish carries deep, lasting floral notes. High-mountain oolongs are valued for sweetness and smoothness resulting from cool temperatures and slow leaf growth at altitude, and Ali Shan delivers exactly that: a buttery, floral cup that is never bitter and rewards slow sipping over many infusions. It is ideally served gongfu-style in a gaiwan or small teapot, pairs with fresh fruit, pastries and light meals, and is a well-regarded gift for oolong lovers.
