Not all teas are created alike, and some special blends are so singular, they're actually difficult to source and produce. This adds depth to the enjoyment of each sip, realizing how much effort went into the journey from field to cup, resulting in a rarefied tea-drinking experience.
Tea Forté's Mountain Oolong blend strikes a sublime balance between the fresh earthiness of green tea and the subtle complexities of black tea. Expertly sourced from small orchards in high elevations, this certified organic blend is a gourmand's dream come true.
Mountain Oolong is available in Loose Tea Canisters, as well as within the Lotus Collection.
DISTINCTIVE OOLONG TEA
Our Mountain Oolong blend engages all the senses, beginning with its inviting aroma of sweet peach. Its dark gold hue hints at the treasure within, and its lush peach flavor elevates the nuanced richness of the malty oolong leaves blended with bright flecks of marigold flower petals. This unique blend is included in Tea Forté's Lotus Collection, an uncommon assortment of the highest-grade, small-lot, certified organic teas. Each rare blend is challenging to source on its own and made even more special when brought together as a quintet.
Production of oolong tea is a labor-intensive process, carried out by artisanal tea makers whose skill determines the precise aroma, taste, and color of each batch. Many consider Tea Forté's oolong teas to be connoisseurial favorites, offering a refined symphony of notes worthy of mention in knowledgeable circles.
Enjoy Mountain Oolong in loose tea pouches with the Lotus Single Steeps® Sampler and a coordinating KATI® Steeping Cup.
HEALTH BENEFITS OF OOLONG
Rich in antioxidants, oolong tea also contains vital nutrients like calcium, manganese, selenium, and potassium, as well as vitamins A, B, C, E, and K. Made from the leaves of the camellia sinensis tea plant, Mountain Oolong tea is oxidized to a level falling between that of black and green tea. This offers the benefits of both tea types: the familiar richness of black tea and the verdant freshness of green, coming together in an altogether unique flavor profile with all the health-forward properties of both varieties. Oolong's moderate caffeine content makes it a gentler but no less satisfying start to the day than coffee, and its bounty of benefits for the body and mind include contributions to heart and gut health as well as a subtle short-term boost in energy and mental clarity.
Steep a cup of Mountain Oolong in a pyramid infuser or with loose tea.
