Oolong teas are semi-oxidized teas, principally from China and Taiwan. They have a complex flavor and aroma, our favorite category. Oolong falls between Green and black teas and more powerful than green tea. These
teas can been on the green side or jade and are light and wonderfully fragrant or amber in color and fermented about 45% of a black tea. The latter have a peach like flavor with a honeysuckle sweetness. The Oriental Beauty is the top of its class. Oolongs contain more caffeine content than green teas and less caffeine content than black teas. Oolongs are high in the amino acid L- theanine, which studies have shown improve brain function, quality of sleep, and reduced stress and anxiety.
