Jade Oolong
Jade Oolong
50g pack
A prized green oolong tea from Nantou county, Taiwan. Similar to Dong Ding, this tea is beautifully deep green in appearance with large, tightly rolled leaves. Once infused, the lightly oxidised leaves gradually unfurl to release their essential oils revealing complex aromatics. Jade Oolong tea is known for its fresh green-floral character and clean, delicate mouthfeel.

-
Oolong teas traditionally come from Taiwan and China but other tea growing countries are now also producing Oolong style teas.
Oolong teas sit between Green and Black teas as the processing allows a degree of oxidation to take place. Some Oolongs are oxidised to as much as 85% giving way to more woody, rich fruity characteristics. Whilst some Oolongs receive as little as 5% oxidation and would easily pass for a green tea; they can be fresh, sweet, soft and buttery.
