Oolong tea comes from China and is transcribed from two words meaning “black” and “dragon”. It goes through a semi-oxidization process that ranges from 1% - 99%. Shortly after picking, the leaves are withered and semi-oxidized in the sun then shade dried. The leaves are then basket-tossed to break down their surface cells and wok fired, halting the oxidization process. To learn more about oolong tea click here
