Oolong Tea Loose Leaf Tea vs. Bag Tea

To provide you with the finest oolong tea experience, Exoteas offers both loose-leaf and bagged options. Loose-leaf oolong tea is ideal for those seeking a more authentic and customizable brewing experience. The whole leaves unfurl during steeping, releasing their full spectrum of flavors. On the other hand, our oolong tea bags offer convenience without compromising on quality.

We use premium pyramid tea bags, allowing the leaves to expand fully, ensuring a rich and robust infusion.

Oolong Teas Caffeine Content

Oolong teas contain moderate levels of caffeine, making them a perfect choice for those looking for a midday energy boost without the jitters associated with high caffeine content. The precise caffeine content may vary depending on the oolong tea type and brewing time, but generally, it falls between green and black tea levels.

 

Is Oolong Tea Black Tea or Green Tea?

Oolong tea falls between black tea and green tea in terms of oxidation. While black teas are fully oxidized and green teas are minimally oxidized, oolong teas are partially oxidized. This unique processing method gives oolong teas their characteristic flavor profile and appearance, making them a delightful category of their own.
