Last week, we tasted samples of two different batches Jin Xuan Oolong grown at 1000 plus meters elevation in Meishan, Chiayi County that were harvested and processed last week. They were quite nice and seemed above average in balance of fragrance and substantial flavor. We'd definitely call both of these batches a success. Alishan is known to receive stronger sun and warmer temperatures, so perhaps the late spring this year was overall a good thing. If so, the yield may not have been affected significantly in this area.
