Default Oo-long: "Sorg Bor Charng Ching Tea"

Has anyone heard of this tea? It's a Taiwan oo-long given to my mom by a
Taiwanese. It got second place at the 91st tea convention (says on the tin)

I think the name is Taiwanese pronunciation... if anyone can read Chinese
here, it's "?????"

The leaves are in a pearl shape and doesn't have a very strong smell.

Can you post the pinyin equivilant in Mandarian? I know 'ching' as
being like a blue/green color....as for the rest of it, I can't
recognize the other words. At least can you put it in Cantonese?

Sorg=Song (Pine)
Bor=Bai(Cypress)
Charng=Chang
Ching=Qing
"Chang Qing" (literally, evergreen)

It is said that the name was given by the late Taiwanese president Chiang
Ching-Kuo.

Yes, thank you. I've tried some today. I didn't use a pot to make the tea,
but put a little bit of leaves in a steeper. I'm not very used to the taste,
maybe next time I should try to put in more tea leaves...
