Additional Info

Terroir Area Information: Terroir: Lishan, Nantou, Taiwan — high elevation, cool, with strong day-night contrast and persistent mist Additional Information: Infusions: Little bitterness when steeped longer; the character changes across infusions. Declarations of Inferences and Presumptions: Class: recorded as Ambiguous or Hybrid because the vendor's own pack reads “Oolong / Black” and the page describes oolong withering, tossing, and pan-firing wrapped around black-tea rolling and a long oxidation to roughly 80%; fields.py reserves that class for an identity that crosses the classical classes, not for missing data, so the tea is recorded as a hybrid rather than forced into either class. 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.
