A Celebration of Natural Sweetness and Grace
From the rolling hills of Hsinchu comes this exquisite 2025 Farmer’s Choice Oriental Beauty, a tea famed for its honeyed aroma and muscat-rich flavor. Crafted from carefully hand-picked leaves bitten by the tea leafhopper (Jacobiasca formosana), this oolong reveals a remarkable depth of natural sweetness, floral fragrance, and fruit-like complexity that embodies the artistry of Taiwanese tea.

Tasting Experience
Dry Leaves:
Warm, sweet, and muscat-rich with subtle herbaceous notes and a delicate touch of florals.
Aroma:
Honey-sweet and floral, lifted by whispers of stone fruit and sun-warmed grapes — a bouquet both elegant and inviting.
Liquor:
Bold, rich, and flavorful. The taste of muscat grapes defines the cup, balanced by a gentle stone-fruit acidity. The texture is smooth and full-bodied, with a moderate sweetness and faint herbal-floral undertones that linger softly on the palate.

Character & Finish
Graceful yet expressive, this Oriental Beauty unveils layers of honey, ripe fruit, and wildflower with each infusion. The finish is long, round, and lightly perfumed — a signature of Hsinchu’s finest terroir and expert craftsmanship.
