{"title":"You want to buy high quality Oolong tea?","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlad you're here! We are the Friends of Tea and we have a large selection of high quality Oolong Tea from Taiwan and Indonesia for you! Here you can also learn more about the origin, the production and much more about this interesting tea variety!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe variety \"Oolong\" is one of the most versatile and interesting teas on the market. Oolong tea has its origin in the Wuyi region of the Chinese province of Fujian. In the meantime, however, Oolong tea has also found its way to other Asian countries.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e We obtain our Oolong tea, for example, from Taiwan and Indonesia, where extraordinary Oolongs are produced at high altitudes. The most important varieties from Taiwan are Jin Xuan, Dong Ding Oolong, Formosa Oolong, or Jade Oolong.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eThe origin of Oolong tea\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eOolong \"烏龍\" means in Mandarin as much as \"black dragon\". Legend has it that a tea farmer was chased away by a black dragon while picking his tea leaves, after which he dropped the leaves and ran away. When he dared to return to his field a few days later, the tea leaves had already oxidized in the sun. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e You can think what you want about Chinese legends, but the Chinese certainly don't have a lack of creativity. The name probably comes from the black colour and the longish and rolled appearance of many Oolong tea varieties.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e If you have to classify Oolong tea, it fits exactly into the niche between black and green tea, because the tea leaves are not completely oxidized. If the degree of oxidation is below 45%, the tea is called green Oolong tea. If the tea has an oxidation degree of 45 - 75%, then it is called medium or dark Oolong tea, which tends to taste like black tea. Oolong tea is therefore best described as \u003cstrong\u003e \"semi-fermented tea\" \u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Green Oolong is less grassy than pure green tea and has a rounder and often floral taste profile. Dark oolongs are probably more similar to black tea and often develop fruity and deep notes. It is also not uncommon for dark oolongs to be roasted to make the aroma softer and rounder. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eThe cultivation and production of organic Oolong tea\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e Just like black, green and white tea, Oolong is made from the tea plant, Camellia Sinensis. Depending on the variety, there are separate subspecies, so-called cultivars, which have countless different characteristics. In Taiwan and Japan there are even state-funded laboratories whose only task is to breed new cultivars and to examine existing varieties! \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e While for the production of green tea sometimes very young leaves are plucked, Oolong cultivars wait a little longer until the leaves are riper and bigger. For Taiwan Oolong, for example, the first 4-5 leaves of the tea plant are plucked. Here, as with other teas, the best quality is achieved in Spring \u0026amp; Autumn.  \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eThe processing of Oolong tea\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe first step after plucking is withering, where the Oolong tea leaves are spread out in the sun to lose water. The tea leaves are then placed on bamboo mats to oxidize, being regularly mixed and shaken by hand so that all leaves are regularly exposed to fresh air.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e As soon as the desired degree of oxidation is reached, the oxidation is interrupted by heat in a climatic cabinet. Depending on the variety, the leaves are rolled to obtain the desired shape, as is the case with the Taiwanese Oolong, for example, which is the typical spherically rolled leaf.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Depending on the variety, an Oolong can also be roasted to extract further aromatic substances and a deeper complexity. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e \u003cimg alt=\"\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1262\/7105\/files\/Shutterstock_Oolong.jpg?v=1552151467\" style=\"font-size: 15px;\"\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003ch2\u003eThe storage of Oolong tea\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs long as you store \u003cstrong\u003eOolong dry and cool, it can be stored for several years and develops more complexity, similar to a good wine.
