Wenshan Pouchong Oolong – Eco farm

Cultivated in the lush hills of Pinglin, New Taipei, Wenshan Pouchong is one of Taiwan’s most historic and delicate lightly oxidized oolong teas. Grown using ecological farming practices, this tea reflects the harmony between Taiwan’s natural environment and traditional craftsmanship.

Nestled among misty valleys and surrounded by subtropical forests, the Pinglin region offers the ideal microclimate for slow leaf growth and deep aromatic development. The leaves are hand-picked and carefully withered under natural sunlight, resulting in a tea that bridges the freshness of green tea with the complexity of oolong.

The result is a cup of pure elegance, light, floral, and refreshing, embodying the grace and clarity of northern Taiwan’s tea culture.
