**Over a Century of Native Taiwanese Mountain Tea**
__Tea trees dating back to the Qing Dynasty have evolved through the ages, transforming into today's rich flavors.__
Mountain tea is Taiwan's most representative and historically oldest tea varietal, growing in Lu'gu for over a century.
Many of the tea farmers taking over their family tea gardens are third, fourth, or even fifth-generation. Their childhood memories are filled with helping out and playing in the tea fields. After leaving home to work, their hearts always yearned for their family's land, leading them to resolutely return and take over, unwilling to let it fall into disuse.
Over the past century, Lu'gu's mountain tea has grown intertwined with different tea varietals, developing diverse appearances and rich flavors, attracting many to Sun Moon Lake in search of the taste of century-old black tea. Its characteristics of a ripe fruit aroma and tolerance for longer steeping make it suitable for tea beginners, serving as an introduction to large-leaf black tea.
This selection is from the spring harvest. This spring, unlike previous years, saw less rain, resulting in a more pronounced overall tea aroma and a rich flavor profile.
