This tea comes from a small ecological garden located at an altitude of 1,000 m in the Ali Shan - or Ali Mountains - in the center of the island of Taiwan.
This wulong is part of the large family of mountain teas from Taiwan called Gao Shan Cha. In her village where a large Tsou indigenous community lives, producer Silvia Vayiyana works her Ali Shan Wulong "Anaiza" tea (which is similar to a PDO) so that it improves with age by gently roasting it. . She nicknamed it "Anaiza" which in Tsou means conviviality, sharing, a real welcome tea when you arrive in her village. Very sweet, very delicious, it has a vegetal and slightly floral freshness, then a sweet vanilla base.
To understand what a more or less thorough roasting brings to this type of wulong, it is interesting to taste it in conjunction with the more thoroughly roasted Ali Shan Cha Wulong "Mimo" .
And if you want to discover other Silvia wines, taste the Ali Shan Cha Red “Yunghu” and the Ali Shan Cha White “Nano”
