Oolong Tea
Oolong tea is a traditional tea made from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. It is partially oxidized, placing it between green tea (least oxidized) and black tea (fully oxidized) in both flavor and color.
🌿 What Makes Oolong Unique
The key feature of oolong tea is its controlled oxidation process, which can range from light (closer to green tea) to dark (closer to black tea). This gives oolong a wide range of flavors and aromas.
🍵 Flavor Profile
Depending on how it’s processed, oolong tea can taste:
- Floral and creamy
- Fruity and sweet
- Toasted or nutty
- Rich and slightly smoky
Light oolongs are fresh and fragrant, while darker oolongs are deeper and more roasted.
