Topaz GABA Oolong Tea 2026, 50g | Tengchong, Yunnan
Description
A GABA oolong named Topaz (黄玉) after the golden gem, grown on the volcanic soils of Tengchong, Yunnan, at high altitude. It is produced through anaerobic (oxygen-free) processing, which naturally raises the leaf's GABA content and yields a remarkably smooth cup with no harshness. The fresh 2026 harvest, offered loose in 50 g packs.
Topaz sits on the bright, fresh side of the GABA spectrum. Over the toasted, lightly nutty base typical of GABA oolong runs a clear floral lift, with notes of honey and orange blossom. Fresh and thirst-quenching rather than heavy, it is an easy, aromatic cup that stays smooth from start to finish.
The liquor is clear golden, silky and light on the palate, carrying its honey and blossom sweetness without weight. Across infusions it stays even and fresh, the floral and toasted notes holding steady, and it rewards both quick gongfu steeps and a relaxed Western pot.
An approachable, fragrant oolong for anyone curious about GABA tea, and a refreshing choice for experienced drinkers who want florals and honey without bitterness. The high-altitude volcanic terroir of Tengchong gives it a clean, well-defined character.
