It’s not a beautiful tea garden, but it’s pure and nature ecological well balance tea heaven.

KP’s ecological tea garden is in the deep mountain area where is few hours drive from the nearyby city.  The tea garden is surrounding by nature forest and far away from any sort of pollutions.  In his ecological tea garden, there are three (3) tea tree cultivars, i.e. Tie Guan Yin, Jin Xuan and Mei Zhan.

Jin Xuan is an unique tea tree cultivar from Taiwan, it is also known as TTS#12.  It was introduced and named in 1980 after 43 years research.  Now Jin X金萱烏龍 (8)uan tea trees are planted in Taiwan, China, Thailand and Vietnam.

Is Jin Xuan Oolong an aromatic tea? 

No, the pure and nature dired Jin Xuan oolong does have very unique flavour, it is a mixture of flora, mung bean and creamy notes.  The flavour from dried leaves is not very strong, but once it’s being waken up in a warmed tea pot or cup, you will be amazed by its intense flavours.

Some people interpreted its unique creamy flavour as milky flavour and named it as ‘Milky Oolong’ in English.  Because of this English name, so now a day there are aromatic Milky Oolong tea that has been scented with milk extract to satisfy buyers who like very strong and sexy milky flavour.

Whether you like pure and nature flavour or scented with extra flavour extract is a matter of choice.  After all, you are the boss of your own body and health.
