Taiwanese GABA Oolong — Soft, focused, and quietly restorative

GABA Black Pearl Oolong is a Taiwanese high‑altitude GABA‑rich oolong shaped into small “pearls,” known for its deep amber liquor, tropical‑fruit sweetness, light sourness, and long, warming aftertaste. It is produced using the same nitrogen‑fermentation method as other GABA teas, but crafted to a richer, more full‑bodied profile.

Why you’ll love it

  • Aroma: soft and rich, with notes of fruit, berries, and a subtle hint of fresh bread
  • Flavor: warm and juicy, layered with dried fruit and bready depth, finishing with a bright berry tartness
  • Effect: distinctly relaxing and meditative, yet gently uplifting and mentally clarifying

GABA Content: ~150 mg per 100 g

Health Benefits (gentle, everyday support)

GABA Oolong offers a unique synergy of GABA, L-theanine, and polyphenols, making it a functional choice for both body and mind. Enjoy it for:

  • Stress relief and emotional balance
  • Improved focus and mental clarity
  • Mild blood pressure regulation
  • Support for restful sleep and relaxation

How to Brew GABA Oolong

Thermos Brewing (for extended enjoyment)

  • Use 5 g per 1000 ml of water at 90–100°C
  • Infuse in a thermos for 0.5–1 hour
  • Yields a strong, warming brew with depth and gentle tartness

Gaiwan Style (refined and expressive)

  • Preheat your gaiwan with hot water, then discard
  • Measure 5 g of tea for a 100–120 ml gaiwan
  • Rinse briefly with water at 90–100°C to awaken the leaves
  • Infuse:
  • First pour: 5–10 seconds
  • Second pour: 10–12 seconds
  • Increase steeping time gradually with each infusion

Suitable for 7–10 infusions, each revealing deeper layers of aroma and flavor.

Western Style (simple and familiar)

  • Use 3–5 g per 250–300 ml of water at 90–100°C
  • Steep for 3–5 minutes
  • Resteep 2–3 times, adding time with each round
