Loose Oolong Tea
Strictly speaking, Loose Oolong Tea is not a type of Green Tea. However, it is very close to green tea. That is why we took the liberty to include it into our Loose Leaf Green Tea category.
On the other hand, its production process does include oxidation, like that of black teas. The only difference is that Loose Oolong Tea is a slightly oxidised tea, while black tea is a fully oxidized one. Therefore, Loose Oolong Tea is very close to green tea in its characteristics, taste, liquor and health benefits.
Loose Oolong Tea originates from the Fujian Province, more precisely from the Wuyi mountains. So, like many teas from this region (including Lapsang Souchong Tea), Loose Oolong tea belongs to a group of Bohea teas.
We have several types of Loose Oolong tea, the most important being Organic Milk Oolong Tea.
