| Oolong tea is a variety of semi-fermented (oxidized) tea that is known for its sweet and flowery qualities. The oxidation of the leaves during the drying process establishes Oolong’s unique place among tea between Green and Black teas. Green (Jade) varieties exhibit a slight withering and browning of the edges of the leaves. Darker (Wuyi) Oolongs are fully browned and more robust. Oolong has many metabolic stimulating attributes and can be used for weight management in addition to a well balanced diet. |
