Alishan Pearl Dew Oolong Tea
High-Mountain Elegance from 1,600m Above Sea Level
During our journey through the cloud-covered mountains of Alishan, we discovered a tea we had never tasted before — Alishan Pearl Dew Oolong Tea. Grown at an elevation of 1,600 meters and above, this tea immediately stood out for its refined aroma, purity, and beautifully balanced flavor.
Alishan’s high-mountain environment is key to this tea’s character. Constant mist, cool temperatures, and significant day–night temperature differences slow the growth of the tea plants, allowing the leaves to naturally develop richer aroma compounds and a softer, more layered taste.
Pearl Dew Oolong is crafted using a light to medium oxidation process, preserving the freshness of oolong tea while enhancing its depth and smoothness. The dry leaves are tightly rolled into small, pearl-like shapes, releasing their fragrance gradually as they unfurl during brewing. The liquor appears a clear, luminous golden-green, clean and inviting.
The aroma is expressive yet elegant, with notes of floral sweetness, gentle creaminess, and a hint of ripe fruit. On the palate, the tea is smooth, naturally sweet, and well-balanced, free from bitterness or harshness. The finish is refreshing and long-lasting, with a soft returning sweetness that lingers pleasantly in the throat.
This is a tea that truly reflects its high-mountain origin — pure, calm, and effortless to drink. It is equally enjoyable for quiet moments of reflection or as a daily companion, offering consistency across multiple infusions.
We selected this tea for BESTLEAFTEA because it captures what we value most: origin, craftsmanship, and clarity of flavor. Each cup carries the essence of Alishan’s misty mornings, cool mountain air, and unhurried pace of tea making.
