Being praised as the “Holy Tea” due to its rare production. Only made by tea tree grow on a high mountain above 600-1000m altitude. The liquid is in honey golden-green color, taste refreshing and with high fragrance aroma. The sweet after taste stays longer at mouth and throat. It also is used in the bath by the royal family back in history.
The road on the Dong Ding Mountain near Lugu Township, Taiwan is very steep and foggy. The tea farmer needs to “froze” their feet when they go to pick tea on the mountain otherwise they might fall down. Hence, they call the top of the mountain “洞顶Dong Ding” which mean the frozen top, and the foot of the mountain “冻脚Dong Jiao” which mean frozen feet. The production is limited and precious.
This tea has a half-round ball shape, in dark green color with a natural fresh fragrance. The liquid is orange-yellow, taste mellow, thick and with Osmanthus aroma. Comes with a strong sweet after taste.
冻顶乌龙茶之所以被称之为“茶中圣品”,主要是因为它产于海拔600-1000公尺的地方,其茶汤清爽怡人,汤色蜜绿带金黄,茶香清新典雅,香气清雅,喉韵回甘浓郁且持久,香气独特据说是帝王级泡澡茶浴的佳品。
台湾鹿谷附近冻顶山,山多雾,路陡滑,上山采茶都要将脚尖“冻”起来,避免滑下去,山顶叫冻顶、山脚叫冻脚。所以冻顶茶产量有限,尤为珍贵。
冻顶乌龙茶成品外形呈半球型弯曲状,色泽墨绿,有天然的清香气。冲泡时茶叶自然冲顶壶盖,汤色呈柳橙黄,味醇厚甘润,发散桂花清香,后韵回甘味强,饮后杯底不留残渣。
