Dark Oolong

Brews up a toasty, amber brown with an incredible complex taste to match.

This variety of organic oolong tea is fermented like black tea, and ends up looking like one. Oolong tea (or “wulong” tea) is between a black tea and a green tea, because it falls somewhere in the middle of the processing scale (black tea is the most processed, or oxidized). Try placing a pinch of loose oolong – about a gram – directly in a mug and steep (180°-190°) until the leaves sink to the bottom. It's taste is unique – light and aromatic with a smoky sweet, roasted flavor that pairs well with savory foods. The dried leaves are long, wiry twists that can be steeped more than once.
