Ti Kuan Yin Tea - 200gms
About Oolong Tea: Oolong tea is a traditional Chinese tea somewhere between green and black. Mainly because it is partially fermented ranging from 10-70% oxidation.

The reason for this is that the leaves are lightly bruised to start the oxidation process. Because they are more full bodied than green...
