Skeisan Exquisite Oolong Tea Milky X2.0 Glass Jar 70g

Product description

When is a Skeisan tea an Exquisite Tea? For us, exquisite does not simply mean better, it describes the special and also the extraordinary. This can be a special, very elaborate form of production or an exclusive form of presentation. Both will surprise you optically, haptically - and tastefully.

Of the various Chinese Oolong teas, this is one of the lighter ones and is famous for its flowery, fruity, never intrusive taste. This is enhanced with a light note reminiscent of sweet milk.

After the elaborate process of harvesting, sun drying and then resting, the oxidation of the tea leaves begins. This is where our oolong, which has a taste reminiscent of green tea, begins, when the leaves are gently rubbed and shaken again and again and the juice that emerges reacts with the oxygen in the air.

This tea, which is undoubtedly one of our finest varieties, also differs from many others in its texture: Visually, its pale yellow leaf, rolled hard into balls, is as strikingly voluminous in the hand as its aroma is later on the palate.

Skeisan teas are natural, without additives and without artificial flavours - they come from the best growing areas worldwide. The tea, with blossoms and fruit pieces, is packed in high quality glass jars, without any kind of plasitk. The refill packs are made of recycled kraft paper.

What does SKEISAN stand for?

Once in ancient China, the emperor camped under a tree and boiled water on a kettle on the fire. When a light wind blew some leaves of the tree into the hot water, the emperor noticed how it turned a light green colour and smelled pleasantly. He tasted a cup - the first Tea Experience: he was thrilled by the refreshing and invigorating effect of this drink from the wild tea tree, which the emperor had thus discovered.

The emperor's name was Shen Nung. This means: Son of the sky.
Son and sky. Sky and son. Skyson.
Phonetic: Skeisan.
