Oolong
|
We've categorized our oolongs by the region they come from. Click on the links to the left to explore the many types of oolong tea.
The Iron Bodhisattva or TiKwanYin is a very popular style from the Anxi area of Fujian, China. Further south, we have the aromatic, single-bush oolongs from Phoenix Mountain. The Wu Yi Mountains of Fujian, China produces some very remarkable cliff teas with a signature flavor profile.
Because any semi-oxidized tea is called an Oolong, they can resemble a light green tea to a heavily oxidized red tea with any combination of light to heavy roasting. The different combinations of roasting and oxidation dictates the taste of the tea and how it is to be enjoyed. For example, a lightly oxidized and lightly roasted oolong(spring harvest Iron Bodhisattva) is to be drunk seasonally for freshness. A heavily roasted oolong(Big Red Robe) can be aged for future enjoyment.
