Origin
Oolong is a tea representing the true craftsmanship of horticulture and tea production. It is a semi-fermented tea, and hence cannot perfectly fall under the category of green tea or black tea. Its form, palate and fragrance vary depending on where it's grown and how the tea master processes it. Its origin is traced back to the lands of China and Taiwan, where it is cherished even today. Due to its texture and colour, it was earlier called “Black Dragon Tea”, however, this name was later changed to oolong. The flavour of this tea can be sweet, light, woody and grassy.
