How is OOlong tea made?
I mean do they use a combination of tea leaves or is it a specific tea leaf? I love Chinese tea and Oolong seems to be their Chinese tea they serve in the Chinese restaurant. Is this the real authentic tea? or has been Americanized? Just wondering. Whats your favorite tea?
I like Red Rose, Lipton and Bigalow.
It’s a specific kind of tea and high quality oolong can be brewed several times from the same leaves and, unlike other teas, it improves with reuse.
It is common to brew the same leaves three to five times, the third or fourth steeping usually being the best.
Oolong tea leaves are processed in two different ways. Some teas are rolled into long curly leaves, while some are pressed into a ball-like form similar to gunpowder tea.
Oolong has a taste more akin to green tea than to black tea: it has neither the rosy, sweet aroma of black tea nor the stridently grassy vegetal notes that typify green tea. It is commonly brewed to be strong, with the bitterness leaving a sweet aftertaste.
But my favorite tea is Red Zinger!
