Hong Yu can be translated as Red Jade, hence the name of the tea. Our Red Jade comes from the Yuchi area on the shores of the scenic Sun Moon Lake in Nantou County, Taiwan. Cultivar Hong Yu TRES No. 18 was introduced only recently to boost Taiwan's black tea production. It was developed from the Assamica species from Burma and the local Wild Shan Cha tea, which has interestingly similar attributes. Wild Shan Cha from Yuchi is an unusual type of tea that exists only in Taiwan. DNA analysis showed that it is an independent species and a certain group of people gave it the name Camellia formosensis. Red Jade White Tea from Yuchi has large, dark, twisted leaves and, despite being classified as a white tea, produces a red jade-colored infusion. It is sought after for its slightly spicy taste of menthol and eucalyptus attractively wrapped in a fruit peel. The taste is very complex, but still remains very clean and harmonious. More
