Four Seasons Oolong tea was discovered in the Muzha district of Taipei when a farmer noticed some of his plants growing exceptionally faster than others. These plants were transferred to a new field and cultivated where it was found he could harvest the leaves up to 7 or 8 times per year, during each of the four seasons, giving it the name Four Seasons. 

This selection is made with leaves from the spring and winter harvests, grown between 400 - 500 meters (1312 - 1640 feet) in elevation. Most Four Seasons Oolong tea, including this selection, is now grown in the Mingjian township in Nantou County in central Taiwan. The leaves are grown in the Yi Family garden, machine cut, and oxidized to 15-20% resulting in a light oolong tea with milk caffeine content.

A pale yellow cup has a fresh, delicate aroma. The bright, juicy palate ends with a light, floral finish. Top notes of stone fruit lead to mid tones of citrus ending with a floral touch.
