About

Naturally high in Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA), this unique oolong supports stress relief, emotional balance, and improved sleep. GABA is a naturally occurring compound in the human body, and when consumed through tea, it can gently promote relaxation without drowsiness, making it a perfect choice for a daily wellness ritual.

This tea is crafted by Master Lee, a respected Taiwanese tea maker known for his precision and depth of skill, the same master who crafted our popular Gui Fei and Dong Ding Oolong. Unlike many GABA teas that carry a sharp or sour note, his GABA Oolong is smooth, mellow, and full-bodied with hints of ripe fruit and toasted grain. It's a rare harmony of health benefits and refined flavor.

Behind This Tea

Lee Ming-Cheng is a third-generation tea master whose tea estate is located in Lugu, the heart of Taiwan's tea industry. In an era dominated by lightly fermented and floral teas, Master Lee remains steadfast in preserving the traditional craft of Dong Ding oolong tea. His dedication to this heritage involves a meticulous process, requiring both higher costs and effort, to produce teas with a rich, full-bodied flavor that is gentle on the stomach.

Master Lee’s roasting techniques are unparalleled. He not only captures the quintessential roasted aroma of classic Dong Ding oolong but also tailors each tea’s roasting level to highlight its unique characteristics. His Dong Ding oolong tea recently won the Grand Prize in the 2024 Lugu Tea Competition, and his Gui Fei tea boasts an unparalleled forest honey aroma that lingers on the palate.

With an unwavering commitment to traditional craftsmanship and a keen eye for perfection, Master Lee is truly a top-tier tea artisan.
