Oolong tea has its own identity in the tea world with its unique way of production as well as its infusion. Oolong is a semi-oxidized tea which means it combines both green and black teas providing a whole new feeling to the tea lovers. 

What is Oolong Tea?

Oolong tea is a Chinese classic tea, which is prepared using the leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant. This tea is semi-oxidized and this process enables the leaves to evolve into a unique layer of flavor. Hence, oolong tea has an astonishing myriad of tastes from the sweet and floral tea to the smoky and roasted tea.

The Role of Terroir in Oolong Tea

In order to appreciate the quality of oolong tea, it is important to understand where it comes from. Oolong teas grown at high mountain elevations are known for their fragrant and flowery taste. While the climate, soil and altitude are critical in defining the unique character of the tea, the region from which it originates is perhaps the most defining factor, as each crop is a true representation of the region from which it comes from.

Brewing Tips for the Perfect Cup

For oolong tea to be enjoyed, it is not just important that it is enjoyed but care should be taken during the brewing process. To remove bitterness, use freshly boiled water that has been cooled to approximately 85-90 °C (185-194 °F). Soak the leaves for two to three minutes then refill the leaves overlooking the developing flavors.
