Oolong Tea

What Is Oolong Tea

Oolong tea is a traditional tea that falls between green tea and black tea in terms of oxidation. Because it is partially oxidized, oolong tea offers a unique balance of fresh and rich flavors.

Originating from China and Taiwan, oolong tea has gained worldwide popularity for its complex aroma and smooth taste. It is appreciated by tea drinkers who enjoy a tea that combines the refreshing qualities of green tea with the depth of black tea.

Loose leaf oolong tea allows the leaves to fully expand during brewing, creating a richer flavor and more aromatic tea experience.
