Oriental Beauty, also known as Bai Hao (東方美人), is considered the most special and popular Taiwan tea worldwide. Producing this tea requires help from a tiny insect, Jacobiasca formosana. When bitten, the plant defends itself by secreting a specific hormone that creates a unique aroma. Hand-picked and produced with traditional methods, this tea yields a distinctive honey aroma with mature stone-fruit flavor.
