JIN XUAN DUO

Alishan Oolong Tea Gift Set

One Origin. Two Expressions.

Two distinctive expressions of Taiwan's beloved Jin Xuan Oolong, crafted from the same mountain terroir.

High in the mist-covered mountains of Alishan, Taiwan, the Shizhuo tea-growing region sits at approximately 1,600 metres above sea level. Its cool mountain climate and frequent mist provide an ideal environment for cultivating beautifully aromatic oolong teas.

Among them, Jin Xuan (TTES No. 12) is especially cherished for its naturally delicate milky aroma, floral elegance, and smooth, mellow character.

But what happens when the same tea variety, grown in the same region, is crafted using two different processing techniques?

The result is a fascinating contrast in aroma, texture, and flavour.

One is fresh, delicate, and wonderfully uplifting. The other is warm, comforting, and beautifully rounded.

Like a gentle spring breeze and the comforting warmth of an autumn evening.

SANBAOTEA brings these two expressions together in our Jin Xuan Duo Gift Set, inviting you to discover how craftsmanship transforms the character of tea.

01 | Natural Milky Jin Xuan Oolong Tea

Lightly Oxidised · Unroasted

Fresh floral elegance with a naturally delicate milky aroma.

Carefully crafted to preserve the fresh, vibrant character of Jin Xuan, this lightly oxidised oolong captures the natural beauty of Alishan's mountain terroir.

The fragrance opens with gentle floral notes, followed by the variety's characteristic milky sweetness and subtle hints of fresh fruit.

Its pale golden liquor is bright and refreshing, offering a silky texture, delicate sweetness, and a clean, lingering finish.

The naturally creamy aroma comes from the tea itself, with no added milk or artificial flavouring.

Light, graceful, and effortlessly enjoyable, this tea is like a gentle spring breeze drifting through the mountains.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Natural milky notes, delicate florals, fresh fruit

• Liquor: Clear, pale golden yellow

• Palate: Fresh, silky, gently sweet

• Finish: Clean, refreshing, with a lingering sweetness

• Style: Elegant, delicate, and uplifting

02 | Traditional Charcoal-Roasted Jin Xuan Oolong Tea

Longan Wood Charcoal Roasted

Warm, mellow, and beautifully layered with traditional charcoal-roasted character.

From the very same Alishan Shizhuo tea-growing region comes a remarkably different expression of Jin Xuan.

Using traditional roasting techniques over longan wood charcoal, the tea is carefully transformed through the gentle application of heat and time.

The fresh floral character gradually develops into warm, woody roasted aromas, while retaining the tea's natural milky sweetness and delicate fruity undertones.

Its brilliant amber-gold liquor offers a smooth, rounded mouthfeel, with a comforting depth of flavour and a pleasantly lingering finish.

Rather than overwhelming the tea with heavy smoky notes, the roasting process enhances its complexity while preserving the elegance of Jin Xuan.

A wonderfully comforting tea to enjoy on a cool afternoon or a quiet evening.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Gentle charcoal roast, warm wood, milky sweetness, mellow fruit

• Liquor: Bright amber gold

• Palate: Smooth, rounded, mellow, gently sweet

• Finish: Warm, comforting, and lingering

• Style: Rich, elegant, and beautifully balanced

One Mountain, Two Expressions

Discover the Art of Taiwanese Tea Craftsmanship

Same origin. Same tea cultivar. Two remarkably different personalities.

The beauty of this collection lies in the contrast between two traditional approaches to Taiwanese oolong tea craftsmanship.

The unroasted Jin Xuan celebrates freshness, floral delicacy, and the variety's natural creamy character.

The charcoal-roasted Jin Xuan reveals another dimension, where gentle heat and patient craftsmanship create warmth, depth, and complexity.

We invite you to brew both teas side by side and explore their differences in colour, fragrance, texture, and aftertaste.

It is a simple yet fascinating way to appreciate the influence of tea processing on flavour.

Tea & Food Pairing

One Steamed Bun. Two Delicious Possibilities.

Imagine a freshly steamed Taiwanese pork bun, filled with savoury pork and shiitake mushrooms, wrapped in soft, fluffy dough with a delicate milky aroma.

Which Jin Xuan would you choose?

The Fresh & Floral Pairing

Natural Milky Jin Xuan complements the gentle sweetness of the dough, while its refreshing character balances the richness of the pork filling.

The Warm & Roasted Pairing

Charcoal-Roasted Jin Xuan brings out the savoury depth of the shiitake mushrooms and pork, creating a richer, more comforting combination.

Two teas. One delicious pairing challenge.

Which would you choose?

Or perhaps the best answer is to enjoy both!

A Thoughtful Gift from the Mountains of Taiwan

From the freshness of a spring breeze to the comforting warmth of a glowing charcoal fire, Jin Xuan Duo celebrates the diversity and beauty of Taiwanese oolong tea.

Each tea offers its own personality, yet both share the same mountain heritage and dedication to traditional craftsmanship.

Whether enjoyed as a personal tea-tasting journey or shared with someone special, this gift set offers a delightful introduction to the world of premium Taiwanese tea.

Two teas. Two expressions. One unforgettable Alishan experience.
