梨山高山茶 - LíShān GāoShānChá

This 高山茶 - GāoShānChá (high mountain tea) is one of the iconic 烏龍 - WūLóng teas of 臺灣 - Táiwān. 梨山 - LíShān is located in 臺中市 - TáiZhōng at an average altitude of 2000 meters. There are only two harvests per year. Due to the significant temperature difference between day and night, the tea grows slowly, resulting in thicker leaves. In the mountains with persistent clouds and mist, sunlight duration is short, reducing catechin content and thus astringency.
