Taiwanese oolong tea
Sang Ceng Ping is the tea garden area between Shan Lin Xi and Ali Shan, reaching 1600m above sea level in Yilan County, Taiwan.
Just across from Sang Ceng Ping is Long Feng Xia in Shan Lin Xi district, one of the famous tea-picking places for premium grade high mountain tea. Some necessary conditions to cultivate premium-grade tea leaves include cool air and moisture from the deep mountains. These conditions are definitely satisfied there.
This tea, made of the famous Qing Xin cultivar brings along all the remarkable high mountain tea characters. Both in its fragrance and flavor, it is charmingly floral and creamy, the creaminess being more on the buttery than on the milky side. It is playfully spicy and a tiny bit sour. The cool breezes coming from the surrounding high mountains make this tea incredibly full-bodied, savory, and very refreshing.

STEP 1) Warm your teapot. Pour boiling water into a gaiwan or teapot, let it sit for a little while, then discard all the water.
STEP 2) Rinse. Put the tea leaves in your vessel, pour hot water over them and then discard the water quickly. This step is for "waking the leaves" a little bit.
STEP 3) Brew. Pour boiling water on your rinsed tea leaves and brew for 30 seconds.
STEP 4) Serve. Pour the tea into a pitcher, and then into cups.
STEP 5) Brew again.
❖ After the first few infusions, you can increase the steeping time (to about 35-40 seconds).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from cooking.
❖ This is how we recommend brewing this tea, but we all have our preferences, so try experimenting to find the way you like it the most.
