#037蜜香美人紅|ChinShin-Dapan Muscatel Black Tea

"ChinShin-Dapan Muscatel Black Tea" is a honey-scented black tea made from the same leaves as "Oriental Beauty Tea." Key conditions for producing Oriental Beauty Tea include using "Chin-Shin-Dapan" tea leaves bitten by leafhoppers, creating a sweet honey-like or fruity aroma, and processing it as white-tip oolong tea. 


Oriental Beauty Tea is Taiwan's most premium and expensive tea due to:

1. Dependence on leafhoppers for flavor requires pesticide-free cultivation, leading to lower yields.

2. Uncontrollable leafhopper activity and inconsistent leaf damage.

3. Preference for new shoots with smaller leaves, with the highest grade being one shoot and one leaf.

4. Need for skilled manual picking.

5. Processing difficulty of damaged leaves limits skilled artisans.

6. Limited cultivation in northwestern Taiwan (Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Miaoli).


ChinShin-Dapan Muscatel Black Tea uses leaves from the "Chin-Shin-Dapan" variety bitten by leafhoppers, creating a sweet honey-like or fruity aroma. Unlike Oriental Beauty Tea, it follows black tea processing methods, making it more affordable while retaining a similar taste.


The tea master at 小茶米 (xiǎo chá mǐ) Tea Garden sources high-quality leaves from Taiwan. They have created exceptional ChinShin-Dapan Muscatel Black Tea, but due to recent climate changes, such opportunities have become rarer.


The presence of leafhoppers, which thrive in the summer, causes the leaves to ferment from the wounds, producing a sweet aroma. This scent is a distress signal from the tea plant, attracting spiders that eat the leafhoppers, thus protecting the plant. Oriental Beauty Tea is a highly representative Taiwanese tea, both domestically and internationally.
