TASTING NOTE

White Peach Superior Oolong: The Elegance of Taiwan

Discover one of Lupicia's most iconic teas: White Peach Superior Oolong. This exceptional blend combines the refinement of a high-quality Taiwanese Oolong tea with the delicate, sweet fragrance of Japanese white peach. A subtle combination that offers a velvety, fresh, and intensely fruity cup.

A Taiwanese Oolong of Rare Quality

The base of this tea is a superior Oolong, carefully selected from high-altitude gardens in Taiwan. Unlike classic Oolong teas, this one is distinguished by its whole leaves, offering naturally persistent floral notes. This lightly oxidized, blue-green tea provides the perfect setting for the aromas of fresh fruit.

Flavor profile

The White Peach Superior Oolong tasting experience is defined by its remarkable finesse and a complete absence of bitterness. Here are the dominant notes of this exceptional tea:

  • On the nose: From the moment the bag is opened, an enchanting aroma of ripe and juicy white peach is released, carried by the springtime freshness of the Oolong leaves.
  • On the palate: A silky and velvety initial taste. The natural flavor of the fruit (the famous Japanese "Momo") harmonizes with the nuances of white flowers (lily of the valley, jasmine) typical of high-altitude Oolongs.
  • Texture: A fluid and rounded liquor, almost creamy, that delicately coats the palate without any astringency.
  • <Finish: An elegant aromatic persistence where the sweetness of the fruit blends with a subtle, noble vegetal note.
  • Color of the liquor: A golden yellow with emerald highlights, of great clarity.

Why choose Superior White Peach Oolong?

Finely flavored: A faithful reproduction of the taste of fresh and perfectly ripe white peach.

  • Prestige Tea: A Taiwanese Oolong base renowned for its finesse and health benefits.
  • Versatile Enjoyment: Essential as a hot tea, it is also considered one of the best teas to enjoy as iced tea (cold brewing) for a healthy and refreshing beverage.
  • Iconic Packaging: Available loose leaf or in our famous illustrated metal tins, perfect for gifting or preserving the freshness of the leaves.

Preparation Tips

To appreciate the complexity of this superior Oolong, the brewing method is crucial. Unlike black teas, Oolong requires special attention to avoid masking its floral notes:

  • Water: Use spring or filtered water, heated to 75°C - 85°C. Water that is too hot could overpower the delicate fruit aromas.
  • Brewing Time: Let it steep for 1 minute 30 seconds to 2 minutes. This is the ideal time for the Oolong leaves to unfurl and release their essential oils.
  • Re-infusions: This tea is generous. You can brew the same leaves once or twice. With each infusion, you will discover new facets: the fruit dominates the first cup, while the tea's floral notes become more pronounced in subsequent cups.
  • Iced Tea: This tea is wonderful when cold-brewed. Infuse approximately 10g to 12g of tea in one liter of water in the refrigerator overnight. You will obtain a velvety, naturally sweet, and incomparably refreshing beverage.

  • Japanese White Peach (Momo)

    A Prestigious Fruit in Japan

    In Japan, the white peach (called Momo) is much more than just a fruit: it's a symbol of longevity and refinement. Unlike Western yellow peaches, Japanese varieties like Shimizu Hakuto are renowned for their exceptionally pale skin and incomparably tender flesh. Cultivated with meticulous care, they represent the pinnacle of Japanese fruit growing.

    Why does the White Peach Enhance Oolong Tea?

    The use of white peach in this Superior Oolong blend brings a unique flavor profile:

    • A velvety smoothness: The flavor of the white peach is more floral and less acidic than that of other varieties. It perfectly complements the silky texture of Taiwanese Oolong tea.
    • An enchanting aroma: Its aromas are naturally intense. From the moment it's steeped, they release notes of sweet nectar reminiscent of a perfectly ripe fruit.
    • A floral harmony: White peach has hints of pink and white flowers that echo the naturally floral notes of high-altitude blue-green teas.

     

  • The aromatic profile of White Peach in your cup:

    • Fragrance: Floral, sweet, and lingering.
    • Flavor: Sweet, well-rounded, with no harshness.
    • Sensation: An impression of spring freshness, both thirst-quenching and comforting.

     

    The Ideal Setting for an Exceptional Fruit

    To enhance the delicate flavor of Japanese white peach, only a tea of ​​absolute finesse would do. That's why this Superior version is based on a rigorous selection of high-altitude Oolong leaves from Taiwan.

    Where a classic tea might mask the nuances of the fruit, our Superior Oolong, with its naturally floral notes and silky texture, acts as a flavor amplifier. This alliance between the velvety aroma of Momo and the purity of Taiwanese mountain gardens creates perfect harmony: a crystal-clear cup, without any bitterness, where each sip reveals the freshness of a perfectly ripe fruit.
