ORIGIN

Oolong Tea is one of the most famous Chinese teas. It is semi-green tea, half fermented. The hometown of Oolong tea is Anxi county, Fujian province, the southeast of China. The climate there is subtropical, mild, warm and humid with plenty of rain. The tea plantations lie in the hills with fertile brown soil which contain rich organic mineral components. Anxi has a long history of tea cultivation, dating back to the seventh century Tang Dynasty.
