Ali San Oolong
Taiwan is famous for the wonderful array of fine oolongs its tea masters produce, among them is a balled type from Ali Shan (Ali Mountain). These dark green pellets unfurl when steeped to release a delightfully floral liquor with a sweet, vegetal complexity and creamy finish. Since oolongs can be steeped multiple (often four or more) times, slightly different flavors may come to the forefront with each infusion.
