Taiwanese Earl Grey Tea is made from summer tea shoots in the highland district of Nantou (central part of the island of Taiwan).
Summer leaf has a less interesting bouquet compared to spring and autumn harvests, but in terms of tannin content, summer leaf is the leader, which is why it is traditionally used to make fermented (black) tea.
Tannins add depth of flavour and tartness, and to accentuate the high notes of the bouquet, pieces of bergamot peel (Citrus bergamia) were added to the finished tea.
