OOLONG TEA

OOLONG TEA

The history of OOLONG TEA dates back to the teas that were originally purchased by the British and imported to England. OOLONG TEA is all about the fermentation process. Fermentation is stopped in order to obtain the flavor desired.

These teas are made from whole leaves because the beauty of the tea is often as important as the flavor and aroma. Generally, the leaves on the uppermost part of the tea bush, where the youngest shoots are found, yield the most flavor.

Chinese OOLONGS are often very green and have a floral taste. OOLONGS from Taiwan, known as Formosan OOLONGS, are oxidized longer, fired longer and have a ripe fruit flavor.

As with all teas, the health benefits of tea make it a great choice for a daily cup!

HOW TO PREPARE:

Generally offered loose, OOLONG TEA should be brewed using water that is just under boiling. OOLONG TEA should be steeped for 3-5 minutes. Your personal taste will determine the length you steep your tea and the flavor that you derive.

So enjoy your "cuppa" OOLONG TEA and finding a unique taste that you love!
