As such, we all understand that each variety has its own characteristic.
However, in this article I am particularly concerned on the nature of the English tea Oolong variety and I know that many of us are not familiar with this variety. So what it is?
The English tea Oolong variety is said to be semi-fermented. Historically, the tea Oolong variety was first manufactured in Taiwan as a tea family.
The leaves of the English tea Oolong variety are noted to be spread three to four inches deep in baskets set in the sun and ruffled to blemish the outer edges which results to the fermentation.
When the leaves of its variety begin to give off their distinct scent, the bushels are passed through a fire to hamper the fermentation.
In addition, the English Oolong tea variety is partially oxidized and is a cross between black and green tea in color and taste.
