Oolong Tea
Oolong tea is a traditional Chinese semi-oxidized tea. The literal translation means "black dragon", although there are many different theories as to why this is the name. The tea leaves are allowed to oxidize (or ferment) for a short period before the oxidation process is halted by pan heating the leaves. The oxidation level of oolong tea gives it more flavor than green tea, but results in a lighter brew than black tea. Oolong tea should be steeped multiple times in order to fully experience the complex flavours and aromas found in every cup. Scientific studies have associated oolong tea with controlling obesity, tooth decay, and atopic dermatitis. Drinking Oolong during or after a high-cholesterol meal has been shown to lower the intake of fat content in the blood.
