Understanding oolong tea

Oolong tea is highly regarded worldwide for its exceptional quality: it boasts a rich aroma, complex flavors, a lingering aftertaste, and a full-bodied infusion. Every aspect of Oolong tea is refined, and it can be steeped multiple times while maintaining its unique character. Not only is it an excellent choice for beginners, but it is also a favorite among seasoned tea enthusiasts for daily enjoyment.

What is Oolong Tea?

Oolong tea is a category of tea with an oxidation level ranging from 8% to 80%, depending on the tea maker’s production style. This is why some Oolong teas have a fresh, green-tea-like flavor (with lower oxidation), while others lean toward the bold, rich taste of black tea (with higher oxidation). The biggest differences between Oolong tea and black or green tea are oxidation levels and shape.

In terms of shape, Oolong tea can be processed into loose, twisted leaves (mainly in the Chinese style) or tightly rolled into small, round pellets (following the Taiwanese method).

In Vietnam, most Oolong teas are green Oolong, grown at high altitudes, also known as “Cao Sơn Oolong.”
