Organic Bergamot Oolong

Tea Garden: Chen Family
Farming Methods: Hand-picked. Organic tea garden
Production Methods: 15%-20% oxidization – Ball rolled Oolong process; Blended with real bergamot peel + natural bergamot essence. Light roast.

Our team sources local organic bergamot fruit from one of the neighbour’s relative (see picture) that is cut, grated and dried at our facility. The fruit pieces are then added to a select lot of Organic Jin Xuan Oolong Tea that is finally lightly baked to bring out its creamy sweetness. A very light sprinkling of a natural essence is used to enhance the heady citrus freshness the natural bergamot fruit pieces add to the tea. The whole process is quite fastidious making this tea quite labour-intensive.  In the end, all flavour elements are balanced leaving room for the Jin Xuan cultivar to express itself as well as the uniqueness of the local Bergamot varietal.

Refreshing and thirst quenching Oolong. Can be enjoyed hot or iced – with added lemon and/or sweetener according to your taste.
