Learn More:Oolong teas are commonly known as partially oxidized because the oxidation allowed in processing varies between that of a green tea and that of a black. Varying between 15-70% oxidation, oolongs are produced into two main varieties: a darker, open-leafed style (such as our Dar Hong Pao), and a greener, rolled-ball style (such as our Jade Oolong). Darker oolongs tend to have a soft, fruity character with undertones of stone fruit.
Greener oolongs offer a more green infusion with a more floral character. Ingredients: Oolong tea from Chazhou, Guangdong China.Time/Temp:.
