Jade Oolong
I'm a long time green tea drinker. I recently visited a tea shop and
the owner talked me into trying a Jade Oolong. It had such an intense
floral flavor (reminiscent of a Jasmine tea-but more "orchid") that it
was hard for me to believe the owner when she said that the flavor was
not added or infused like Jasmine is--that it was straight from the
leaves and the processing. The owner seemed fairly knowlegable,
although her green selection was limited to the "standard" greens such
as sencha, dragonwell, etc.
So, experts of the tea newgroup--what is Jade Oolong and why is it so
flavorful?
I bought a package: 2 oz. for $7.00 (USA).
