Oolong Tea
Is one of the most time consuming teas to create. It is designed according to the five basic stages, with the rolling and oxidation stages done repeatedly. Oolong is a complex category because it is so broad: it is most simply described as halfway between green and black, which is quite accurate. These teas are anywhere from 8% to 80% oxidation (measured roughly by looking at the amount of brown or red on the leaf while the tea is made). The leaves are rolled, then allowed to sit and oxidize for a while. Then they will be rolled again, then oxidized, again and again. Often, gentle heat is applied to slow down the enzymes a bit. Over the course of many hours (sometimes days), a beautiful overlay or "paint" of aroma and flavor is created. Oolongs are generally much more complex in flavor than green or white teas, with their smoothness, mild astringency and rich floral or fruity flavors. Because of their harmonious rich flavor profiles, Oolongs are ideal for those just starting to drink tea.
