Oolong Loose Leaf Tea

Once picked the leaf shoots leaves are gently withered to remove some of the moisture. When sufficiently dried they are tumbled in a bamboo drum, bruising the leaves and provoking  oxidation.  Oolongs are semi-oxidised which means  the process is halted after a certain time (for black teas this process is continued until full oxidation takes place). The process varies depending on the type of oolong being produced and ranges from 10% oxidation for a ‘green’ oolong, to over 60% for a darker Oolong.  To the complete the process the leaves are then pan fiired at high temperatures before being rolled and dried.

it is this varying level of oxidation that makes this tea type so exciting,offering a huge spectrum of flavour.  With such a wide range of high-quality oolong teas for you to enjoy, all beautifully flavoured –  dive in and find the one you love.
