Sun Moon Lake Gaba Wu Long
Tea preparation tips
A wulong tea out of the ordinary
This "gaba wu long" grown near Taiwan's famous Sun and Moon Lake has been transformed by depriving its leaves of oxygen between two stages of oxidation. The result is an increase in the level of the amino acid gaba, whose positive effects on stress management are the subject of numerous studies. This particular transformation also results in a very interesting evolution of the tea's aromatic profile.
The silky, full-bodied liquor has a slightly acidic attack, followed by flavors reminiscent of cooked rice.

Plain tea
White, green, black and dark teas from China, India, Japan and elsewhere are all varieties from the same plant: the tea plant. Once plucked, the leaf is processed in different ways, undergoing numerous transformations. Depending on the terroir, the fineness of the leaf and the way it is processed, the result is an unlimited palette of tastes and vintages.
