"Oriental beauty" is a famous tea, in the creation of which take part the tiny green-winged grasshoppers fuchen-zi (Jacobiasca formosana). The plant begins to defend itself against their bites by changing its chemical composition, especially volatile compounds. As a result, ready-made tea acquires an amazing, incomparable taste and aroma.
Dry leaf: small, silver hairy buds and curled brown leaves. The aroma is intensive, herbal-floral with a touch of berries. The liquor is transparent, with a white grapes hue.
The bouquet of brewed tea light, airy, spicy-floral with notes of shortbread cookies, champagne wines and fresh berries. Aroma is sedative and sweet, floral: the richness of essential oils creates a real symphony on the surface of a cooling cup. The taste is refined and full-bodied, sweetish with delicate berry sourness, spicy nuances and long, refreshing finish.
Brew tea with hot boiling water (95°C) in a porcelain gaiwan or a teapot of porous clay. The proportion is 4-5 g per 100 ml. The first infusion should last for 15-20 seconds. After that do short steeps (just for 2-3 seconds), increasing steeping time for each subsequent step, if necessary. You can repeat this method up to 12 times and even more.
"Oriental beauty from Miaoli" is a great ceremonial oolong for sophisticated connoisseurs – ideal for evening rest, friendly communication or special, tea mood.
