Li Shan is known as one of the best oolong teas globally, originating from one of the highest mountainous regions in Taiwan. The tea plants endure cold temperatures, occasional snow, and frequent mists, contributing to the creation of a rare and delightful brew with hints of honey and cream. Li Shan is one of Taiwan's newer high mountain (Gao Shan) tea-growing areas, situated in the central mountain region. Special machines are used to roll the tea into balls, whereas in the past, the leaves were bent using the feet of robust workers. This tea is widely regarded as one of the finest oolongs in the world.
