GABA Li Shan ZZ captures the pristine, fresh essence of Taiwan's high-altitude Li Shan (Pear Mountain) region. Cultivated on lofty plantations where cold nights and dense fogs prevail, the tea leaf develops an extraordinarily delicate profile. The special GABA fermentation process further refines this character, making the taste exceptionally soft, rounded, and serene, while preserving its inherent fruitiness and freshness. The dry leaf is tightly rolled, dark olive in color, with a subtle aroma of sweet bread dough and light fruity nuances. The infusion is clear, pale gold, and remarkably pure. The flavor is soft, smooth, and soothing, characterized by a gentle bready tang, a tender sweetness, and ethereal fruity hints that leave behind a calm, refreshing aftertaste. The effect is the quintessence of GABA harmony. This tea gently dissolves internal tension, slows the inner tempo, helps quiet mental chatter, and evens out the emotional landscape. It bestows a state of inner silence and mental lucidity, making it perfectly suited for evening repose, gentle focused work, or recovery after a demanding day. Brewing Recommendation for Serenity:
