Wu Long Tea
ALL TEAS, no matter what variety come from the same plant family CAMELLIA SINESIS. The wide varity of delicious flavors, intruiging colors and wonderful aromas are created through the firing and oxidation process. Wu long tea is created through a special fermantation and oxidization process that gives it it's unique properties.
WU LONG ( ..or oolong, wulong... don't get hung up on the two names they are EXACTLY the same tea!) is a partially fermented tea which is processed between the black and green tea families. The tea leaves are dried in sunlight and allowed to partially oxidize (20-80%) until leaf edges reddens. This gives oolong a a bit more body than Green tea but slightly less body than Black tea.
