Shan Lin Xi - which literally means "Fir Forest River" is perhaps the largest tea growing area for Taiwan High Mountain Tea. The geography and coinciding climate are ideal conditions for cultivating prime quality tea. Shan Ling Xi Oolong has an exquisitely smooth taste with just a hint of flowers. The slight astringency to this Oolong tea provides a refreshing cleansing effect to the palate, so this tea is ideal after a heavy meal. The smoothness of Shan Ling Xi tea has a buttery quality to it, and later brewing bring out a unique smokiness that settles on the tongue with a very pleasing sensation.
