Taiwan Bi Luo Chun

A very beautiful green tea with the big, twisted leaf, typical for Taiwanese Bi Luo Chun (formerly known as Pi Lo Chun).

Taiwan Biluochun is being increasingly produced since the 1960s. The name refers to the Biluochun from Suzhou, China, as it is the model for this tea.

But contrary to the Chinese Bi Luo Chun, this tea is made from an Oolong-tea variety, which has much larger leaves. Taiwan Bi Luo Chun have an appearance similar to Bao Zhong, the open-leaved green Oolong from Taiwan. This tea is lacking the strong and full bodied taste of its Chinese counterpart, and it is very soft, sweet and shows little bitterness.
