Oo-Mango-Long Tea - WS
The Fujian Province of China is the birthplace for the semi-oxidized Oolong teas. Oolong teas, aka wulong or black dragon, are made from large leaves that are produced in the late Spring. Unlike other types of tea that contain the top leaves and the buds of the bush, oolong teas are large well formed leaves that will sometimes also contain the stem of the bush. Oolongs differ from green, black and white teas by the method of processing and are the most labor intensive tea to produce. Each type of Oolong varies in the percentage of oxidation and the method in which it is processed (some are twisted, tippy leaves, some are cut, some are rolled into small balls).
This tea is a delightful blend of Chinese Oolong tea and mango essence, interspersed with golden petals, and steeps to a light ecru cup with long olive-green leaves. The taste is sweet and refreshing, with a light mango flavor.
Brew tea at 195º - steep for 4 minutes. Try multiple infusions (let the tea steep for approximately 15 seconds longer on each subsequent infusion).
Ingredients: China Oolong tea, marigold petals, and mango flavor.
This tea pairs well with pork, chicken, spicy foods, cucumber sandwiches, soft cheeses, and fruit desserts.

This is one of my favorite teas that I keep in stock. It's a light oolong. The mango flavor is not overpowering at all. Tasty by itself or mixed with other oolongs (a small amount of passion fruit oolong).
This Tea has a wonderful aroma. Its by far my favorite oolong that Ive tried. Added a bit of honey for flavor and really enjoyed a great cup of mango tea.
I'm newer to oolong tea and this one has quickly become a favorite. It carries a sweetness from the mango, yet is still wonderfully balanced. Have re-purchased.
