GABA OOLONG

GABA Oolong is a special Taiwanese oolong tea created using a unique fermentation technology in a low-oxygen environment. This processing method gives the tea its characteristic mild taste, natural sweetness and deep aroma, which have made GABA Oolong one of Taiwan's most recognisable and beloved teas.

Origin and technology
GABA Oolong appeared in Taiwan at the end of the 20th century, when local researchers developed a method of fermenting tea leaves in conditions where oxygen is virtually absent. This technology not only emphasises the natural sweetness of the tea leaves, but also creates a unique flavour profile that cannot be achieved using traditional methods.
The leaves are picked by hand and then placed in special airtight chambers, where they undergo slow fermentation. This process enhances the aroma, softens the taste and creates the characteristic warm, slightly fruity notes that distinguish GABA Oolong from other Taiwanese teas.

Flavour profile
GABA Oolong is a tea with a surprisingly smooth, rounded character.
•     Aroma: warm, sweetish, with notes of baked fruit, honey and a hint of woodiness.
•     Taste: smooth, rich, with natural sweetness and light caramel notes.
•     Texture: dense, silky, enveloping.
• Aftertaste: long, soft, slightly fruity, with warm depth.
This tea is ideal for those who enjoy oolongs with a soft, sweet character and deep aroma, but without bright floral notes or sharp astringency.

How to brew
To unlock the full potential of GABA Oolong, we recommend using water at 90-95°C.
•     Gaiwan or Yixing teapot: 5-6 g per 100-120 ml, short infusions.
•     Western method: 3-4 g per 300 ml, 3-4 minutes.
The leaves unfold gradually, so the tea can withstand multiple infusions, each of which reveals new flavour nuances - from sweet fruity notes to deeper, warmer and woody ones.

Why this tea is special
•     Unique fermentation technology not available in other regions.
•     Taiwanese origin, known for its high standard of oolong quality.
•     Mild, sweet taste that appeals to both beginners and experienced tea enthusiasts.
•     Deep aroma that makes the tea ideal for evening and relaxing tea sessions.
•     Multifaceted taste that unfolds with each new infusion.
GABA Oolong is a tea that creates an atmosphere of comfort and warmth. It is ideal for quiet moments when you want to slow down, enjoy the aroma and allow the flavour to unfold gradually.

Who is this tea for?
•     For lovers of mild, sweet oolongs.
•     For those who appreciate Taiwanese teas with a deep, warm character.

Storage
Store the tea in an airtight container, away from light and strong odours. Taiwanese oolongs retain their aroma well, but it is best to consume the tea within a year of opening.
