Oolong Summer White Peach and Mango
Taiwan is the number one producer of amazingly fragrant and floral oolong teas.
Oolong tea is a semi-oxidized tea which means it is more oxidized than green tea but less oxidized than black tea. That is why the oolong teas have the broadest range of flavors and aromas. Compared with China’s long history of tea, Taiwan has only been seriously producing tea since the 1850s but has become famous for its high quality and amazingly fragrant oolongs. Taiwanese oolongs tend to be on the greener side of the spectrum and produce a refreshing and floral taste with a sweet finish that blends well with an array of fruit flavors. One of Taiwan’s storied oolongs, Wenshan Baozhong, is such a tea and provides the perfect backdrop for two of LUPICIA’s top-selling flavored oolong teas MOMO OOLONG SUPER GRADE and RIPE MANGO OOLONG. Baozhong has been cultivated in Taiwan for over 100 years, and it is the crown jewel of the Taiwanese oolongs. The small town of Pinglin, where the tea is harvested and produced, takes its star oolong very seriously. So much so that its streetlamps are shaped like teapots. The oolong itself is very fragrant, with notes of jasmine and gardenia permeating the leaves, and the taste of sweet flowery notes running through the brew.
A change from
your everyday iced tea.
What healthier way to pass the hot summer months than with a tall glass of LUPICIA’s RIPE MANGO OOLONG or MOMO OOLONG SUPER GRADE. Both are so enjoyable straight, there is no need to add sugar.
