This lauded Taiwanese oolong, frequently known as Peng Feng Cha ('braggart's tea') or Bai Hao Oolong, is legendary in reputation, despite only having developed within the last century. The terpenes in the growing leaves provoked by the bites of leafhoppers are enhanced by careful oxidation to create a resinous, almost piney aroma and honeyed sweetness. This tea, sourced from the northern township of Emai, enhances the characteristic profile with a little spiciness, a hint of heady sandalwood and the soft tang of drying apricots.
