林老師傳統工藝 春季烏龍|青茶 <青心 Qing Xin> The Tenderness of the Heart

Made to harmonise with the rhythm of nature, this traditional Oolong corresponds to the characteristics of spring. It ensures your body and mind effortlessly align with the most energetic season of the year.

In appearance, the leaves are hand-rolled into small curls and gently charcoal-roasted to emerald green, like the young leaf waiting for the perfect timing to open and flourish.

As you brew and re-brew, the curls slowly open up their aromas and tastes, transforming from fresh broad bean to wild gardenia, taking you on a spring walk through the alpine meadows. The infusion mouth-feel is crisp, smooth and refreshing as if you are gently patting your face with the mountain stream.

Like the upward energy that nourishes everything in nature, you are likely to feel the Cha Qi (the energy of the tea) warming you up from your belly to the chest, throat and head. A gentle pick-me-up tea that lifts your mood and helps clear blockages.

Cultural Significance

We prefer to call our "Oolong tea" Qing (/Ching/) Cha. It was categorised as one of the six types of traditional Chinese tea in the 70s. Due to the commercial popularity of the Taiwanese Oolong from the 90s, Qing Cha has been mostly and exclusively associated with Oolong. The depths and breadths of Qing Cha have remained unknown to most.
