Oolong Tea
Oolong tea, a partially-oxidized tea derived from the leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, has been consumed for centuries due to its unique and robust flavor profile, as well as its numerous health benefits. Hailing from China and Taiwan, oolong tea strikes a balance between green tea and black tea, offering a rich blend of antioxidants and other beneficial compounds. This article will discuss the main health benefits of oolong tea, supported by scientific studies.
Antioxidant properties
Oolong tea is rich in antioxidants, including theaflavins, thearubigins, and EGCG, which can neutralize harmful free radicals in the body and reduce oxidative stress. (1)
Weight Management
Studies have indicated that oolong tea can enhance weight management by improving fat oxidation and metabolism. These effects can be attributed to the polyphenols found in the tea. (2)
Heart Health
Oolong tea consumption has been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease, thanks to its antioxidants and ability to improve cholesterol levels. (3)
Improved Brain Function
Research suggests that the antioxidants in oolong tea can help improve brain function and protect against Alzheimer's disease. (4)
Diabetes Management
Oolong tea could be beneficial in managing diabetes by improving blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity. (5)
Skin Health
Studies have shown that the polyphenols in oolong tea can have beneficial effects on skin, helping to alleviate issues like eczema. (6)

Customer Reviews
This is what I'd call something like a novelty tea. Both the aroma and flavor are unlike any other tea I've tried, and the flavor is uniquely persistent. I had a cup of cream oolong like 2 hours ago and I can still taste it. I made a cup of another kind of tea just now but all I can taste is the cream oolong still.
The closest flavor I can compare it to is that of clotted cream.
I still haven't figured out whether this is something I would drink regularly, but I do think that it's at least a must-try because to my knowledge there's nothing else like it. Also, if you have a clear teapot, it's kind of neat to watch the leaves unfold.
The cream taste in this is amazing, I was shocked how clear the taste was. Brewed this several times over and enjoyed it with friends. I've never had such a high quality oolong before
I bought this to try out and it's a really good Oolong tea. Fast shipping.
Every one I've tried has been wow...ok...this is soooo good! Freshness to them, enough to really try it and see....definitely worth it!
Love this tea! I love how I can buy samples, and it comes in a tiny resealable bag. Very good price for the amount given for samples as well.
