Winter 2015 is turning out to be an excellent season and we were more than excited when we’ve sampled this season’s offerings from the same Sancegping garden we’ve been working with for the last 3 years now. This garden produces teas that simply keep improving from one season to another. We think that the change in management and the subsequent improvements made to the garden, factory and the new responsible farming practices put in place do tend to show in the cup. If you tried and liked our previous Lots you will be not dissapointed with this one. Sancengping is nestled between the Shanlinxi and Alishan tea terroirs. In fact, teas from this garden are very often sold as Alishan tea. This is the price to pay when your area doesn’t have the same reputation as the neighbouring one! Situated at the intersection of three counties (Nantou, Yunlin and Chiayi), the tea from this area seems to borrow all the best from its more reputed neighbouring terroirs. It has the Alpine freshness and crispness that one often finds in Shanlinxi teas as well as the body and round sweet tangy mouth feel typical of Alishan teas. The floral component of this tea is rich and intricate and filled with the subtle last bursts of sweet aromas that are drenched by the golden sunlight of our Taiwanese winters. It is rich rather than being brash. Exactly what one wishes to drink when seeking solace in the golden rays that can only be found in a tea cup at this time of the year. A wonderful discovery. We hope it is the same for you!
