High Mountain Oolong Tea, also known as Gaoshan tea, comes from Taiwan's high-altitude regions, typically at elevations above 1,000 meters. The most famous areas for growing this tea include Alishan, Lishan, and Shanlinxi, each known for producing high-quality teas. The cool temperatures, ample mist, and sunlight at these elevations create the perfect environment for tea plants to develop slowly, allowing the leaves to build more complex flavours.
