From Taiwan Sourcing

With Da Yu Ling tea plantations being uprooted to allow for natural restoration, Fu Shou Shan area is finally “the place” for the highest elevation Jade Oolong tea in Taiwan. Fu Shou Shan area not only has the highest elevation, but is also famous for its “Veterans Affair Council” background. This governmental background does not necessarily guarantee the quality of the tea, but nonetheless a very popular choice for the gifting culture in Taiwan, and thus built the reputation of Fu Shou Shan tea.
The Fu Shou Shan this year is very different from the one from last winter. The tea was processed more heavily, which resulted in a more golden color and stronger taste. The aroma could be described as the most “powerful” jade oolong from high elevation this season, not to mention its extremely sweet taste as well. If you are looking for a strong jade oolong this year, look no further, this is your best choice!

Love it when you’re not expecting much and the session is really enjoyable. That’s what I had this morning. I had a crew over to do work on house so I was busily brewing and had my first steep down my throat before it dawned on me that I didn’t pay attention. The second steep was really good. Sweet nectar that had a hint of corniness, thicker than most Jade and more structured in the cup. There is also a hint of spice in the aroma that translates into the flavor but at a whisp. I brewed it up only 6 times as the flavors are mostly starting to fall away at that point and didn’t want the session to end on a flat note.
