Description

Dong Pian is an oolong tea from Taiwan, crafted by Wang Family Tea and harvested during the second winter flush in the hills of Bagua Shan, Nantou. Around the winter solstice, the tea plants begin to form new buds, mistaking the season for spring. These buds grow slowly in the cool air, developing a unique aroma.

The tea is hand-picked and made from the Sijichun cultivar, known for its fresh and floral character. The low temperatures and slow growth give the tea a soft sweetness and bright clarity.

The infusion is light and fragrant, with notes of fresh grass and blossom. Its taste reveals green, floral accents rounded by delicate sweetness.

The story behind the tea: Wang Family Tea

In the mountainous Nantou County in central Taiwan, the Wang family has been producing oolong for four generations. Joshua and Ivy, the youngest generation, work together with fellow tea farmers from areas such as Alishan, Dong Ding and Sun Moon Lake.

Wang Family Tea is today the only internationally selling tea company fully owned by Taiwanese tea farmers, without brokers or intermediaries.
