A comforting brew that is made from the classic high mountain Chin Xin cultivar but is oxidised and roasted that little bit extra to produce a honey like brew which contrasts perfectly with the slight acidity of GABA. 

This Taiwanese ball rolled oolong which has gone through a particular oxygen free process, alternating the leaves between air and a nitrogen rich environment (with no air) during the oxidation phase. This is done over a matter of hours and naturally increases the GABA levels in the tea leaves, which results in the accumulation of GABA in the leaves. 

GABA promotes alertness, enhances mood and helps to promote sleep.
