Ginseng Oolong

The cup is golden-green whilst the additions of ginseng and licorice underline the soft sweet flavour. This premium ginseng Oolong is based on high quality Oolong which is blended with very small amounts of powderised ginseng and liquorice root. The tea can be infused more than once but the first two infusions are the best.

About This Loose Leaf Tea

The premium ginseng Oolong (also called Lan Gui Ren or Ren Shen) comes from the Chinese province of Hainan and is based on high quality green Oolong, which is blended with very small amounts of powderised ginseng and liquorice root. Only the youngest sprouts are "dusted" with a fine coat of these ingredients, after withering and rolling and before the subsequent drying stage. The optic of this reminds of small rolled, pressed olive-green tea bits or nuggets.
