Jin Xuan (Chinese: 金萱; pinyin: jīn xuān; lit. 'Golden Daylily'; pronounced [tɕín.ɕɥɛ́n]) is a variety of oolong tea developed in Taiwan in the early 1980s. Also referred to as #12 or "Milk Oolong" (Nai Xiang), it is known for its light, creamy, and floral flavor, often described as having a natural milky character. Jin Xuan tea is cultivated at higher altitudes and is popular among tea farmers in Taiwan and Thailand.[1]
