Taiwan GABA Oolong Tea Cake 100 g | Bagua Shan Wu Long Bing Cha - Option: Cake 100 g

This unique Taiwanese GABA Oolong is crafted from a carefully balanced blend of 四季春 Sì Jì Chūn (Four Seasons Spring) and 金萱 Jīn Xuān (Milk Oolong cultivar), then pressed into a compact, elegant 100 g cake. The result is a tea that is both practical to store and age, and beautiful to drink, offering the full aromatic brightness of Si Ji Chun and the smooth creamy body of Jin Xuan.

Why Spring GABA?

We prioritise spring harvests, when the leaves are naturally at their most aromatic, fruity, and refreshing.
Spring GABA Oolong delivers:

• a richer aroma,

• brighter fruit notes,

• fuller and more generous mouthfeel.

If one drinks GABA for its functional benefits, it should be delicious enough to drink often — and spring GABA truly shines cup after cup.

Aroma & Flavour

During the oxygen-deprived fermentation that enhances natural GABA (γ-Aminobutyric Acid) levels, the tea undergoes a gentle oxidation that softens tannins and amplifies sweetness.

The flavour is exceptionally inviting:

• ripe field berries,

• strawberry jam,

• golden sultanas,

• a crisp, lightly tart, but never bitter finish.

The moment hot water touches the leaves, the aroma rises warm and bright — fruity, comforting, and unmistakably spring-like.

Pressed into a cake, the tea develops a slightly deeper, rounder profile over time, while retaining its fresh fruit-forward character.

Pressed Cake Craft – Why It Matters

Pressing GABA Oolong into a 100 g cake:

• protects the leaves,

• encourages slow, elegant aging,

• concentrates fragrance within the cake,

• makes it ideal for travel, gifting, and long-term storage.

The compression is gentle enough to preserve leaf integrity, but firm enough to age gradually like a traditional Taiwanese baked oolong.

Cultivars in Harmony

Si Ji Chun 四季春 contributes lively aromatics and floral lift.
Jin Xuan 金萱 adds creaminess, smooth texture, and natural sweetness.

Together they create a flavour that is both vibrant and silky, thoroughly enjoyable for beginners and connoisseurs alike.

Perfect Hot or Iced

The bright, fruity character makes this tea outstanding:

• as a comforting hot GABA Oolong, or

• as an exceptionally refreshing iced tea.

Either way, it remains clean, crisp, balanced, and deeply pleasant.

Summary

A beautifully expressive Taiwanese GABA Oolong pressed into a 100 g cake, made from the celebrated cultivars Si Ji Chun and Jin Xuan, and harvested in the spring for maximum aroma and smoothness. Fruity, fragrant, silky, and effortlessly drinkable — a GABA tea crafted for pure enjoyment first and functional benefits second.
