Alishan Hong Gaba is a unique Taiwanese oolong tea grown in the Alishan Mountains. The combination of traditional red tea processing and GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) technology makes this tea truly special.
Taste: Rich, multifaceted, with notes of dried fruits, berries, chocolate, honey and a slight sourness.
Aroma: Bright, sweet, with floral, fruity, honey and chocolate notes.
Appearance: Hand-rolled, tight leaves are dark brown with golden flecks.
Colour of infusion: Rich red-brown.
Alishan Hong Gaba undergoes a two-stage process. First, the tea leaves are fermented using red tea technology, and then placed in an oxygen-free environment where nitrogen causes GABA to accumulate. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter that has a calming and relaxing effect.

Свое название ГАБА-чай получил из-за высокого содержания в своем составе гамма-аминомасляной кислоты (по-английски — Gamma-aminobutyric acid, GABA). Гамма-аминомасляная кислота, в сочетании с другими компонентами чая, оказывает на организм человека совершенно удивительное и комплексное воздействие. Она понижает артериальное давление, помогает при атеросклерозе, головных болях и головокружениях, при морской болезни, стимулирует мозговую деятельность в частности и динамику нервных процессов вообще, улучшает мышление и память, снимает похмельный синдром, обладает высоким антиоксидантным действием — а это значит, что может иметь профилактическое антираковое действие. Гамма-аминомасляная кислота по своему действию аналогична транквилизаторам (диазепам, феназепам), но при этом не вызывает привыкания.
A cup of aromatic freshly brewed tea invigorates in the morning, gives strength during the day, warms in bad weather or refreshes in the heat. And if it is not just tea, but the famous GABA, the properties of which are improved compared to the traditional drink, then calmness, excellent health, high performance are guaranteed!
