WUYISHAN TIEGUANYIN
WUYISHAN TIEGUANYIN is a stunning oolong tea from Wuyishan region which deserves
to be far better known. It's a classy Tieguanyin style, richly roasted and made to
long leaf form. This leaf produces a superb, intensely dark brew
with a smooth and flavoursome finish.
WUYISHAN TIEGUANYIN is sold vacuum packed in 100g foils $16.95.

BIG RED ROBE RESERVE
BIG RED ROBE RESERVE is a dark, heavily roasted oolong which is the tea drinker's
equivalent of a
strong "espresso" coffee. Unlike other commonly available heavily roasted oolongs,
the Big Red Robe has a multi-dimensional set of flavours, with a silky smooth finish.
The Reserve is described as a super premium Wuyishan by oolong tasters.
With an incredibly smooth and silky,
'well rounded' mouth-feel, it's easy to see why. This tea is so well balanced that no
one flavour or aroma
dominates. A rare tea for the oolong connoisseur, giving multiple infusions from
the one serve of leaf.
If your palate prefers a more subtle style of oolong this Big Red Robe Reserve
will not disappoint.
BIG RED ROBE RESERVE is sold vacuum packed in 100g foils $35.50.

FRAGRANT MONKEY PICK
FRAGRANT MONKEY PICK is a delightfully delicate and fragrant oolong
style that lies to
the very 'green' end of the spectrum. Monkey Pick oolongs are always full of surprises
and this special green MP is no exception: peachy aromas set aside a mellow
butterscotch palate. A premium oolong tea, making superb day-time drinking
at work or home.
FRAGRANT MONKEY PICK is sold vacuum packed in 100g foils $19.95.

RED WATER OOLONG
RED WATER OOLONG is a deliciously sweet, almost "plummy" medium roasted oolong
from Anxi, Fujian Province. This fine oolong is characterised by a golden toffee liquor
with plum and caramel aromas-flavours, and a long sweet finish. Somewhat similar
to our former Taiwan Red Water Oolong. RED WATER OOLONG is a certified
organically grown tea and is available with G&S in 100g vacuum packs, price $16.00.

GREEN ORCHID OOLONG
GREEN ORCHID OOLONG is from the same gardens as our Red Water Oolong,
made to a greener and more delicate style. Green Orchid has a sweet
alluring fragrance and a
light yet complex flavour somewhat similar to a northern Taiwan Baozhong. This
is also a certified organically grown tea and like the Red Water Oolong will
produce many infusions from the one serving of leaf. A premium oolong and delightful
afternoon tea.
GREEN ORCHID OOLONG is sold vacuum packed in 100g foils $16.50.

PREMIUM TIEGUANYIN
PREMIUM TIEGUANYIN is an oolong a class or two above the Special Grade Tieguanyin
(see descriptions below).
The tea's infusion is a paler colour, and the tea somewhat smoother.
As with the Special Grade TGY, the Premium TGY grade has a wonderful
peach-like fragrance that also exhibits a touch of honey on the nose. It is suggested
that you first try the Special Grade and then compare with the Premium to see what
subtle differences can make to the overall balance and "feel" of a fine oolong.
PREMIUM TIEGUANYIN is sold vacuum packed in 100g foils $19.95.
