Da Yu Ling is a very prestigious tea. It is the highest elevation tea growing region in Taiwan. The government has been reclaiming land of Da Yu Ling tea farms since 2014. Since then, the production of Da Yu Ling has dropped dramatically. A lot of our tea lovers were sadden that we discontinued our previous Da Yu Ling due to the fact that the farmer lost the tea farm in 2018. After years of searching, one of our farmers shares his own stash with us, which is from his friend’s farm at around 2300m elevation. This incredible tea showcases the characteristics of Da Yu Ling as the highest elevation Taiwanese oolong: very clean, soft, and airy.
