Jin Xuan Anxi China Wulong Tea

Jin Xuan, also known as Milk Wulong, is a lightly oxidized wulong from Anxi County in the Fujian Province of China. Jin Xuan translates as “Golden Lily” and this cultivar was originally created in Taiwan. This popular cultivar is known for its creamy, milky aroma and it has been planted in many wulong producing regions, including Anxi County. This Jin Xuan is grown at an altitude above 3,600 feet and the leaves are harvested in the spring. The leaves are light- to medium-oxidized around 20-30% and then lightly roasted to bring out the creamy notes. These creamy notes are then enhanced by steaming the leaves in milk.

The leaves unfurl to yield a very smooth and richly aromatic, slightly viscous, light- to medium-bodied infusion with lingering sweet cream and floral notes. Please note that there is no flavor added to this tea and this is the “creamiest” of our three Jin Xuan wulong teas. Since the leaves are steamed in milk, it is not recommended for those who have milk allergy or are vegan.

Leaves may be infused multiple times.
