Oriental Beauty Whole Leaf 18 Bags

Ten Ren's Oriental Beauty Whole Leaf 18 Bags contain Oriental Beauty, an oolong tea which is also known as Bai Hao Oolong, Champagne Formosa, or White Fur Oolong. The leaves undergo a high degree of fermentation (80%) before it is baked. The steeped tea is golden brown in color. It has a faintly sweet smooth taste with a slightly baked and light floral aroma. Whole-Leaf tea bags are manufactured with a special new machine that allows the whole tea leaf, as found in our loose tea products, to be placed into a tea bag instead of having to cut the tea leaves into a smaller size. Some tea connoisseurs believe that whole tea leaves are one of the best ways to enjoy tea. This tea is available in boxes of 18.

The water used to steep this tea should be about 160-180°F or 70-80°C. Use one tea bag for about every 6 ounces (150 ml) of water. A steeping time of about 3 to 5 minutes is recommended with more or less time depending on the desired concentration. As a rough guide, the higher the temperature of the water or the greater the amount of leaves used, the shorter the steeping time should be. Shipping weight is 0.25 pounds.
