Jinxuan Tea is produced in southern Taiwan and is a very famous Taiwanese tea. It is suitable for making Baozhong tea and Oolong tea, and its cultivation area in Taiwan is quite extensive. So, specifically, what is the difference between Jinxuan Tea and Oolong tea? The following provides an explanation on this issue.

Oolong tea combines the production methods of green tea and black tea. Its quality lies between that of green tea and black tea, possessing both the rich flavor of black tea and the fresh fragrance of green tea. It is also renowned for its 'green leaves with a red border.' After tasting, it leaves a lingering fragrance in the mouth with a sweet and refreshing aftertaste. The pharmacological effects of Oolong tea are particularly notable in breaking down fat, promoting weight loss, and enhancing physical fitness. In Japan, it is referred to as 'Beauty Tea' or 'Fitness Tea.'

Jinxuan Tea is the name of a tea cultivar, primarily produced in Nantou and Chiayi. It was successfully bred by the Taiwan Tea Research and Extension Station after over forty years of cultivation, becoming the twelfth new variety developed in the 1980s. It was named Tai Cha No. 12, which is the origin of Jinxuan Tea's scientific name. Later, it was also named Jinxuan. Since then, partially fermented tea made from Tai Cha No. 12 tea leaves has been called Jinxuan Tea, commonly known as '27仔.' Jinxuan Tea leaves are thick, tender, and have a glossy green color. The tea offers a pure, smooth taste with a light milky and floral aroma, giving it a unique flavor profile. It can be processed into Oolong tea.

What is the difference between Jinxuan Tea and Oolong tea? In summary, Jinxuan Tea is a uniquely flavored Taiwanese tea that can be made into Oolong tea.
