DETAILS

Description
Perhaps the most well known Oolong tea, this Formosa Oolong is usually what one would be served in a traditional Chinese restaurant. A slight nutty flavor is the product of the roasting process that this tea goes through. Nutty and slightly vegetal. Oolong tea is believed to promote an increased metabolism.

Experience the unique taste of Formosa Oolong Tea. This loose leaf blend offers a smooth and balanced flavor with a distinctive nutty character. Oolong tea is partially oxidized, positioning itself between black and green tea in terms of processing and potential health benefits, which may include promoting gut health.

Steeping Instructions

Oolong Tea Brewing Instructions

Oolong teas offer a diverse range of flavors. Use these instructions as a guide and experiment to find your perfect tasting cup:

  1. Heat water to just under a boil (185-199°F)
  2. Pour hot water over oolong tea leaves (1-2 teaspoons per 8 oz water) in a teapot or infuser.
  3. Cover and steep for 2-5 minutes, depending on your desired strength and the type of oolong tea. Experiment to find the perfect balance for your preference. Lighter oolongs may require shorter steeping times.
  4. Strain and enjoy! Oolong tea can be enjoyed hot or iced.
**Tips:**
  • Oolong tea leaves can be steeped multiple times. Experiment with subsequent steeps to discover the evolving flavor profile.
  • High-quality oolong tea leaves from The Spice Hut will result in a more complex and nuanced flavor.
  • Consider using a tea timer to ensure precise steeping times, especially when experimenting with different oolong teas.
