- Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea (Dongfang Meiren or Dong Fang Mei Ren) is one of the most famous oolongs. It is white tip oolong tea or Champagne oolong. This tea is heavily fermented and non-roasted.
It is known that when Queen Elizabeth II tested it, she loved this tea for its beautiful tea leaves and unforgettable taste, and the tea was named after the Queen as Oriental Beauty Tea.
- Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea is semi-oxidized, made by light fire-baked traditional technology. Only one bud with two top leaves are picked by hand to produce this high quality oolong tea. The buds are bitten by the Jacobiasca formosana (one kind of insect live in tea farms) and then the oolong will have a special sweet taste. Because of this insect, farmers couldn’t use any insecticide. As a result, the tea farms for Oriental beauty tea become totally natural and organic.
- Oriental Beauty Oolong Tea is quite unique in that early in the season, leaf hoppers arrive at the tea garden, during a 3 week time frame, they will partially chew the leaves allowing it to oxidize while still growing to make Oriental Beauty.
- The oxidization rate of Oriental Beauty Oolong is more than 60%, which is achieved through a long period of cool temperature, complicated withering and leaf processing. Followed by a triple roasting of the leaves, which draws out the sweet honey-like notes and a complex depth of flavor. These natural climate conditions, along with the traditional withering process, creates the unique charm and flavor profile of the honey and muscatel notes in this tea.
- Once steeped, Oriental Beauty Oolong offers a crystal clear golden amber tea liquor, you will appreciate the flecks of pale green leaf and whole leaves capturing the high quality of the leaf. It releases a rich floral and muscatel aroma. Its flavor is rich, bold, sweet, and long-lasting - just what is desired in a high-quality Oriental Beauty Oolong tea.
- During the Japanese occupation period, the local records were recorded by the Beipu School, It is recorded that Beipu Zhuang is the origin of the growing of oolong tea in Taiwan. The tea garden in Dahu Village and Erqi area of Beipu is the highest tea area in the village. The tea garden here is from the most prosperous period of Taiwanese tea.

- Tea growing environment, generally leeward, humid, sunny, and without any pollution, a tea plantation with small green leaves and a tea bud.
Summer tea is before and after the annual crop (late May to mid-June), The tea buds are bred by the small green leaf of the floating dust to produce a special flavor of rich fruit and honey.
The tea garden is another ecological world.
There are many kinds of insects in the garden, textile mothers, butterflies, spiders, beetles, tiger head honeycombs, nests, large and small caterpillars, and so on.
Where it is like a tea garden, it is more like a happy paradise for animals.
The floating dust bug (small green leafhopper) is even more coming.
Many wild tea trees are over one hundred years old and are the old tea heads that have been preserved until the time of the great ancestors.
The former people did not have the money to buy pesticides, so there is no habit of using pesticides.
Now farming tea gardens also insist on not using drugs, and not applying chemical fertilizers.

In addition to collecting tea, Chashan needs to manually remove weeds. In order to continue the original ecological management rules, it is rare to go to Chashan.
