Oolong Teas Collection – Top 10 Classic for Beginners 100g

Oolong tea contains a moderate amount of caffeine and is rich in polyphenols, which can help boost energy, support digestion, and promote overall wellness when consumed in the right amount.

✅ Recommended Times to Enjoy Oolong Tea:

After Breakfast (9:00–10:30 AM)
Gently wakes up your digestive system and boosts mental clarity.

• After Lunch (1:00–3:00 PM)
  Helps with digestion and cuts through greasy meals—especially useful after heavy lunches.
• Afternoon Tea Time (3:00–5:00 PM)
  Relieves fatigue and refreshes your mind. This is one of the best times for daily tea drinking.
• After Dinner (before 7:00 PM, in moderation)
  You may enjoy a low-caffeine or roasted oolong (like Da Hong Pao) to aid digestion, but avoid drinking too late to prevent sleep disruption.

❌ Times to Avoid:
On an empty stomach: Oolong tea has warming properties and may increase stomach acid when consumed without food.

Within 2 hours before bed: Its caffeine content may interfere with your sleep quality.

☕ How Much Per Day?
For most people, 2 to 4 cups per day (about 10–20g of dry tea) is a healthy and enjoyable range. Since oolong tea can be steeped multiple times, you can spread out your tea sessions throughout the day.

Oolong tea is a semi-oxidized tea, positioned between green and black tea in terms of processing and flavor. This means it combines the freshness of green tea with the richness of black tea—a truly unique balance.

Green Tea is unoxidized, retaining its grassy, vegetal notes and a light, refreshing taste. It's perfect for those who enjoy a clean and delicate flavor.

Black Tea is fully oxidized, offering bold, smooth flavors with notes of honey, malt, or fruit. It’s warming and full-bodied.

Oolong Tea is partially oxidized (typically between 10% and 70%). Its flavor varies widely:

• Lightly oxidized oolongs (like Tie Guan Yin) are floral and crisp.
• Medium to heavily oxidized oolongs (like Da Hong Pao) are rich, roasted, and warming.
• Some, like Oriental Beauty, have a sweet, honeyed aroma.

Another key difference: oolong tea is more resilient to multiple infusions than green tea. You can steep the same leaves 3–5 times or more, with each infusion gradually unfolding new layers of aroma and flavor. It’s ideal for slow sipping and mindful tea sessions.

Core Concept: Start small, focus on practice, enjoy the process.

Step 1: Get basic knowledge and beginner tea samples

Learn the brewing methods of oolong tea. You don’t need many tools—just start with mastering the tea-to-water ratio and steeping time.

Step 3: Taste carefully
Pay attention to the experience of each tea session—the color of the liquor, the leaves, the taste, and the aroma. This is key to understanding each type of oolong tea.

Step 4: Deepen learning and practice

Comparative tasting: Try different grades of the same type of tea or teas from different mountains.

Expand exploration: Try more oolong varieties.

Use resources:

High-quality blogs/websites: The tea brand’s official website blog, such as iTeaworld’s oolong tea blog.

The charm of oolong tea lies in its rich layers of aroma and ever-changing taste. For example:

Some are fresh and elegant, like Tie Guan Yin

Some are sweet and smooth like honey, like Oriental Beauty

Some are rich and mellow with a lingering aftertaste, like Da Hong Pao

What makes oolong tea special is that “the more you steep, the more flavor it reveals.” It is highly re-steepable, and each infusion shows a different character—like having a conversation with tea.

The first brew is fragrant and pleasant

The second brew is sweet and refreshing

From the third brew on, the aroma becomes softer, and the taste grows deeper

You can’t help but steep again and again, falling deeper in love with it.

Each kind of oolong tea is like a “flavor story,” combining the expression of nature with the craftsmanship of the tea master and the terroir of the mountain. The process of drinking tea is also a journey of exploration and enjoyment.
