The consumption of Oolong teas continues to grow worldwide. Oolong tea leaves are cultivated in China and Taiwan. They undergo a more or less extensive oxidation process depending on the desired type of tea: low oxidation for an Oolong reminiscent of green tea flavors, and high fermentation for an Oolong similar to black tea.
Our Chinese green Oolong comes from the Fujian mountains. The leaves are rolled to preserve flavors and benefits. This tea is lightly oxidized, giving it a fresh taste with floral notes. It produces a gentle infusion with a light color that offers a low theine content, for a light cup.
Lightly oxidized teas, such as white tea or Oolong, better preserve the beneficial effects of the plant. The production method of our tea allows it to maintain its polyphenol content. These antioxidants offer multiple health benefits.
Indeed, they fight against the oxidation of your cells, support you in your weight loss, and help you maintain good health. Moreover, our organic Tie Guan Yin contains little caffeine, making its consumption possible for even the most sensitive tea drinkers.
You can brew your Oolong Chinese tea using either the Western or traditional method. In any case, the brewing time for our organic semi-oxidized tea is short. Between 2 to 3 minutes in hot water before consumption. The leaves can release their flavor for several successive infusions.
For a cup rich in taste, aromas, and polyphenols, we recommend brewing 12 grams of leaves per liter of water.
To bring out the fresh notes of your Chinese Oolong, the brewing temperature of your organic product should not exceed 80°C (176°F).
Enjoy the effects of antioxidants from your Oolong throughout the day. Semi-oxidized teas are low in caffeine, making late consumption entirely possible.
Our Chinese Oolongs and other teas come from organic and responsible agriculture. The leaves are of superior quality. Each product is packaged in France, in zip-lock bags or boxes. They allow excellent preservation of the teas, their aromatic notes, and their beneficial effects on health.
