Additional Info

Terroir Area Information: Terroir: Mingjian, Nantou, Taiwan Plant Information: Cultivar note: Rougui means cinnamon. A Wuyi cultivar; in Taiwan it is grown mainly in Mingjian, having reached the island in the 1990s or later. Cultivation Information: Harvest as stated on the page: spring 2012 Additional Information: Processing note: processed very traditionally — classic green leaf with a red edge; infusion colour golden yellow through to orange Ageing: the traditional processing means the tea can be stored without loss of aroma, and its aroma changes with age Declarations of Inferences and Presumptions: Brewing parameters: taken from the vendor's own "How to brew Oolong tea" guide, which the product page links to in place of per-product instructions. The figures are that guide's grandpa-style ratio (approximately 3 g per 150 ml) at its stated boiling-water temperature, and are type-level guidance rather than a product-specific recommendation. No steep duration is recorded because the guide's infusion times depend on whether the leaf is rolled or twisted, which is not established for this record. Tea Class: left unresolved. The registry's Rougui class is Wuyi Rougui (Wuyi Cinnamon), a Wuyi rock-tea identity; this tea is Taiwanese, from Mingjian in Nantou, made from the Rougui cultivar that reached Taiwan only in the 1990s. Recording the class as Rougui would assert a Wuyi rock tea. Rougui is retained as the cultivar, and the class is left unresolved rather than guessed, matching this catalog's other Taiwanese cultivar-named oolongs.
