Chard, mushroom, roasted sugar cane

GABA tea, or Gabaron, is a tea that has a high content of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). It's produced in an anaerobic environment, oxygen-free, with lots of nitrogen. This results in an accumulation of GABA in the tea leaves. GABA tea is perfect for meditation enthusiasts.

The compound GABA can be found in the human brain, where it helps stabilize neuronal activity. As we grow older, natural GABA levels in the brain decrease. Recent studies have shown that increasing GABA intake can help regulate blood pressure, promote quality sleep, relieve anxiety, and improve mood.

This Taiwanese GABA oolong tea is polarizing: those who like it love it, and those who don’t really don’t. This is a medium-bodied tea – the nose is at once vegetal, briny, and caramel; it tastes like an umami-packed mushroom broth.
