What is Oolong tea and why you should try it
Oolong tea
Oolong is neither a black tea nor a green tea; it falls into its own category of tea. Oolong tea falls somewhere in between and is often described as a partially oxidized tea. But oxidation levels in oolong can vary from 8% to 80% depending on the production style of the tea master. Which is why the flavor profile of some oolongs may lean more toward a fresh green tea (less oxidized) and others toward a malty black tea (more oxidized).
How is it made?
Oolong teas are traditionally hand made, rolled, twisted or curled into tight balls or thin strands. Rolling is an important aspect of oolong processing that alters the appearance, color and aroma of the final tea leaves. Depending on how and when the leaves are rolled during processing, the tea master can subtly alter the entire direction of the tea’s final flavor.
