This handcrafted PouChong (Baozhong) oolong is a rare aged treasure, resting since Spring 2019 and now offered in extremely limited quantity.
PouChong is traditionally Taiwan’s lightest oxidized oolong, known for its floral and vegetal energy. In its 7-year aged form, this tea has matured into something uniquely expressive and serene. The liquor reveals an elegant balance of refined floral sweetness and deeper, earthy layers that speak of time and place.
On the nose, you’ll find delicate floral notes reminiscent of jasmine and osmanthus, gently unfolding into green bamboo and tender wood tones. The palate is soft and full, with a rounded texture that moves from subtle creaminess into a calm, woody resonance. Light mineral undertones and a whisper of bamboo forest freshness complete the experience, with no bitterness or astringency, only a lingering, composed finish.
Handpicked with only the youngest shoots and expertly processed, this Baozhong oolong invites repeated sipping in multiple brews. Whether enjoyed hot, iced, or cold brewed, its character deepens with each infusion, offering a rare expression of aged Taiwanese tea craftsmanship.
