The tea leaves of Honey Red Oolong Tea are nibbled by the Tea Green Leafhopper, followed by the process of repeated roasting until refined, transforming the aroma into a strong honey and floral scent. The tea offers a rich and smooth flavour.
Crafted from whole leaf oolong tea (乌龙茶), this Taiwan oolong tea is made using traditional techniques that highlight the natural sweetness created through insect interaction. The result is a naturally aromatic premium oolong tea with depth, complexity, and a lingering finish.
This premium oolong tea bag is crafted using carefully selected whole leaves, offering both convenience and quality without compromising flavour. Each oolong tea bag allows the leaves to fully expand during brewing, releasing its signature honeyed aroma and smooth, refined body.
Sourced from naturally cultivated tea gardens, this oolong tea reflects the character of wild oolong tea, where minimal intervention allows the leaves to express their true terroir. Elegant, balanced, and refined, it is an excellent choice for those seeking an authentic and high-quality oolong tea experience.

ORIGIN
Origin - Luye, Taitung | Single Estate Tea
Ucia teas are sourced from carefully selected single estates across the diverse mountain landscapes of Taiwan. Each garden is chosen not for its name, but for its ecological integrity, elevation, and micro-climate precision.
We study the land in detail — altitude, soil composition, mist patterns, seasonal airflow, and humidity balance. Only environments capable of nurturing complexity, resilience, and aromatic depth are selected.
Every tea remains true to its own estate. We do not blend across regions. Each harvest expresses a singular landscape, shaped by its own rhythm of light, air, and time.
Through natural farming in pristine, pollution-free surroundings, the ecosystem is preserved in its purest form. No pesticides. No synthetic fertilisers. Only living soil, skilled hands, and patience.
The result is Single Estate Tea defined by:
One estate.
One ecosystem.
One uncompromised standard.
Presentation
For those who select the Grand Tea Trilogy, a special presentation box is prepared using traditional Taiwanese paulownia wood—lightweight, resilient, and naturally aromatic. This wood, long treasured in East Asian craftsmanship, offers both protection and symbolism: refinement, longevity, and quiet strength.
Embellished directly onto the wooden cover is the Chinese character for “Time” (時間).
Time shapes the mountains.
Time deepens the roots.
Time refines the leaf.
The engraving is not decorative—it is a philosophy. Each box becomes a vessel not only for tea, but for patience, maturation, and memory.
The tactile warmth of paulownia wood, the subtle grain patterns unique to each piece, and the understated engraving together create a presentation that reflects the tea itself: natural, intentional, and enduring.
A gift not only of flavour—
but of time preserved.
HANDMADE PURITY
True flavour requires no intervention. Ucia represents the pinnacle of Taiwanese wild tea—grown in harmony with the ecosystem and picked by skilled hands in the untouched mountains of Taiwan.
Rooted deep within ancient forests, each tea tree thrives without pesticides, fertilisers, or human interference. The leaves draw nourishment directly from mineral-rich soil, mountain mist, and shifting seasonal light. Every harvest is guided by intuition and experience—carefully selected at the precise moment when aroma, texture, and vitality converge.
What emerges in the cup is not merely tea but landscape transformed into flavour:
Unaltered. Untamed. Uncompromisingly pure.
