Our Ai Jiao Oolong does not come from Wuyi but Baise of Guangxi. It grows at altitude of almost 2000 meters in separation from all kinds of pollution, both industrial or human. What makes this tea so special is the fact that the tea hill is actually a volcano which is still considered active. The volcanic soil gives tea bushes very special attributes in terms of health benefits as well as taste. The high elevation and volcanic soil impart a sweet taste and fragrant aroma highly valued by Oolong tea connoisseurs. More

It can be compared to Taiwanese Dong Ding Oolong as it offers much fuller body than other high mountain Oolongs. The body of tea means the width, boldness and richness in both taste and flavour. It is an amazing tea!
Note: Do not confuse Huo Shan 火山 (volcano) and Huo Shan 霍山 (location name in Anhui).
