Oolong Teas also known as Wu-long tea ( the new slimming tea that helps burn fat ) are picked by
hand during the spring and winter months. Oolong tea is semi fermented which is one of the reasons
it has such a unique character compared to Green Tea (unfermented) and Black Tea (fermented).

Oolong tea is not black tea, nor green tea. It falls between the two. Plucking comes later in the season
producing a larger leaf than green. During production, the leaves are left to oxidize until the edges are
a golden brown. This produces a brew that is more pronounced than green with none of black tea's
astringency.

The original oolong tea plants came from China; due to limited cross-cultivation, oolong tea plants in
Taiwan are very pure with only seven or eight varieties. Most Taiwan (Formosa) oolong teas are
grown in high mountain regions on the slopes of the Tung Ting Mountains in Formosa's Fujian
province. The cooler environment leads to slower growth and fewer crops meaning the tea is always
in demand.
