About: Four Seasons wulong comes from Nantou county. Nantou is mostly rural area with low lying banks of Sun Moon Lake, gently rolling hills and jagged mountain peaks as high as 3000 meters. The climate is ideal for growing tea with average temperature range from 15 to 24 degrees Celsius. Because of the amazing terroir and cultivar used for making this tea it is possible to pluck the bushes in all four seasons – hence the name for this tea.
