Oriental Beauty · Wendy’s Pick · Limited Edition
30 gram
Tea Body: ●●● Full-Bodied
Honeyed · Ripe Fruit · Lingering
A rare and distinctive Taiwanese oolong, carefully selected by Wendy Wang from tea maker Xu Yaoliang in Emei, one of Taiwan’s traditional heartlands of Oriental Beauty.
Silky and full-bodied, with layers of ripe fruit, honeyed sweetness, and a long, elegant finish.
What Makes Oriental Beauty Special
Unlike most teas, Oriental Beauty develops its signature character through the tea plant’s interaction with nature. Small green leafhoppers feed on the young leaves, triggering changes in the leaves that contribute to Oriental Beauty’s distinctive honeyed aroma and ripe-fruit character.
The result is a tea that is naturally aromatic, deeply expressive, and beautifully sweet without anything added.
From Xu Yaoliang
Xu Yaoliang is a celebrated Taiwanese tea maker known for his Oriental Beauty.
In 2005, his Oriental Beauty received the sole Special Award at the Hsinchu County Quality Tea Competition and later sold for NT$1.01 million for 21 ounces of tea, marking one of the most notable prices in Taiwan’s premium tea history.
This is the same tea maker whose work caught Wendy’s attention.
Why Wendy Chose It
I look for teas with a true sense of place, exceptional craftsmanship, and a character that stays with you.
This Oriental Beauty stood out for its depth, balance, fragrance, and lingering sweetness.
Distinctly Taiwanese. Naturally expressive. Carefully selected.
