We always have slightly higher expectations when going back to the Xing Jia Yang garden we’ve re-acquainted with after many years of taking a pass on their offerings and new management took over a few year’s ago. Reassured by the proven skill of the new team in place (we know them very well), it was a delight to witness the improvements made which are apparent in the cup! Xin Jia Yang is situated along the section of Highway 8 that links Lishan village down to Taichung. This road was extensively damaged during the 1999 earthquake and remains a mere treacherous trail in many spots with constant rocks rolling down onto to the road. Only locals dare use it. This Lot 1232 continues in the foot steps of the tea we purchased before the pandemic but livelier. It is one of the first produced from that garden this spring a few days after receiving a much needed rainfall that produced a lush fragrant crop that was picked from the highest section of the garden. The the finish is all smooth and lingering as expected but with a touch more exuberance in the aroma. The amplitude in the range of flowery sweetness notes and depth in the luscious bouquet it proposes is offered in a mellowed velvety finish that is quite simply all that is expected from a good High Mountain Lishan tea but with an extra degree of complexity. This tea has the potential of developing a wonderful thick texture as it mellows but remains extremely enjoyable fresh! This tea was listed in our “great new finds” a few year’s ago and is still is a strong contender this spring. We are happy to promote it to a regular listing in our catalogue as the least expensive of our Lishan teas, all to your benefit and enjoyment.
