{"title":"Oolong Loose Leaf Tea","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn general, oolong loose leaf tea sits beautifully between green and black tea. It is produced through withering, oxidation, curling and twisting. This makes it one of the most distinctive tea styles in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBy contrast, the taste of oolong loose leaf tea varies widely across varieties. It can be sweet and fruity with honey aromas, or woody and thick with roasted notes. Some varieties are fresh and floral — all depending on origin and production style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat Makes Oolong Loose Leaf Tea Unique\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIndeed, our oolong loose leaf tea is sourced from China, Taiwan and Ceylon. Oolong is produced using Chinese techniques and cultivars. However, it does not need to be grown in China — we select the finest examples from the best producers worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eMoreover, oolong loose leaf tea shares many health benefits with black tea. These include antioxidant properties and improvements to heart and gut health. It may also help lower blood sugar, reduce LDL cholesterol and support weight management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur Oolong Loose Leaf Tea Selection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFurthermore, our oolong loose leaf tea range includes some of the most celebrated varieties.

It has a light, distinctive fragrance unlike any other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAdditionally, our Baozhong, also known as Pouchong, offers a very light and floral cup. For something peachy and smooth, the Fujian-grown Tieguanyin oolong loose leaf tea is essential.

Oolong has been cultivated in Taiwan for over two centuries, with commercial export under the Formosa name beginning in the 1860s when British merchant John Dodd first introduced Taiwanese oolong to world markets. Taiwan's mountainous terrain, humid climate, and significant temperature variation between day and night create ideal conditions for tea growing — slowing the development of the leaf and concentrating its natural sweetness and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis particular tea uses a semi-oxidised oolong as its foundation, oxidised to the point where it bridges green and black tea without committing to either. The long, slightly curled leaves produce a golden amber infusion with a soft peachy character that is natural to quality Formosa oolong. The orange blossoms are added after processing, their delicate citrus-floral fragrance working with the oolong's inherent sweetness rather than sitting on top of it.

Dong Ding, meaning Frozen Summit, takes its name from the mountain in Nantou County where the original tea plants were first established, brought from the Wuyi Mountains of Fujian Province by a scholar returning home in the mid-nineteenth century. What began as a small planting in the Luku region quickly became one of the most admired styles of oolong in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Dong Ding style is defined as much by its processing as by its origin. After hand-picking, the leaves are withered, tossed to initiate oxidation, and rolled into the tight, dark ball shapes characteristic of Taiwanese oolong. The defining step is the roast — a slow, low-temperature process that can take fifteen hours or more and requires considerable skill to execute well. This medium roast is what gives Supreme Dong Ding its warmth and depth: the leaf retains its natural floral and creamy qualities, while the roasting adds a smooth, toasty richness that makes it deeply satisfying to drink. The result is a cup with both elegance and body — a balance that is genuinely difficult to achieve and that sets a fine Dong Ding apart from more lightly processed Taiwanese oolongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIn the cup, the liquor glows a warm, clear gold. The character is smooth and rounded, with a soft floral note, a creamy mid-palate, and that gently lingering roasted finish. There is a subtle natural sweetness throughout — no milk is needed, and none should be added. The tightly rolled leaves unfurl slowly across multiple infusions, and the tea is very well suited to repeated brewing; the early steepings tend to be richest and most aromatic, with later infusions becoming lighter and more delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSince 2008, High Teas London has been one of the country's leading independent tea specialists. With over 350 teas and infusions — one of the largest collections in the country — we have spent nearly two decades seeking out teas of genuine character and quality.

Use water that has just come off the boil — around 90 to 95°C — and allow the tightly rolled leaves a moment to begin opening before timing your steep. For a first infusion, 3 to 5 minutes will give a balanced, golden cup; steeping a little longer brings out more of the roasted depth. The leaves are well suited to multiple infusions — four or five is entirely reasonable, with the character shifting gently from cup to cup as the leaf continues to unfurl. If you have a small gong fu pot, this is an excellent tea to brew in that style: 8 to 9 grams in around 150ml, with short successive steepings of under a minute each. The leaves will also cold brew beautifully — use around 5 grams per litre of cold water and leave overnight in the fridge.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"High Teas London","offers":[{"title":"50g","offer_id":7691049992228,"sku":"SUDO-50-W13","price":9.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"125g","offer_id":7691110416420,"sku":"SUDO-125-W13","price":21.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":7691110449188,"sku":"SUDO-250-W13","price":36.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g","offer_id":41202889162930,"sku":"SUDO-500-W13","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"60g","offer_id":41202894536882,"sku":"SUDO-60-W13","price":22.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"150g","offer_id":41202900500658,"sku":"SUDO-150-W13","price":26.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/2161\/7956\/products\/SupremeDongDingPM.jpg?v=1778162562"},{"product_id":"china-tie-guan-yin-iron-buddha-loose-leaf-oolong-tea","title":"China Tie Guan Yin Iron Buddha Loose Leaf Oolong Tea","description":"\u003cp\u003e🍵 The Leaf — Tightly rolled, semi-oxidised oolong from Anxi County, Fujian Province, processed through sun withering, repeated shaking and careful rolling to develop its signature fragrance and smooth depth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍵 The Colour — A luminous golden-amber infusion with a clean, open aroma and a natural sweetness that settles beautifully in the cup\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍵 The Character — Floral and gently orchid-like with a silky, rounded mouthfeel, a honeyed mid-note, and a softly lingering finish that rewards a slow, unhurried pace\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍵 The Occasion — Ideal for a quiet afternoon session brewed across multiple steepings, or for those who want a premium Chinese oolong with genuine complexity and no added flavourings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eTie Guan Yin is one of the most celebrated oolongs in China, and this Iron Buddha grade loose leaf tea brings together the powerful fragrance, balanced aroma, and refined character that have made it famous for centuries.

He cultivated it with care, and the tea it produced was unlike anything known before — the leaves were dark, lustrous, and heavy as iron, and the cup was extraordinary in its fragrance and depth. The emperor himself is said to have fallen under its spell when presented with the tea as a tribute gift.

Mature leaves are picked at the Kai Mian stage, when the top bud has fully opened, then sun-withered and moved inside to continue withering. The leaves are shaken repeatedly — a highly skilled and intuition-driven step — before being rolled into their signature tightly compressed, semi-balled form. This rolling is what locks in the aroma and makes the leaf capable of yielding multiple infusions of distinct and evolving character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"standard-markdown grid-cols-1 grid [\u0026amp;_\u0026gt;_*]:min-w-0 gap-3\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSemi-oxidised, this tea sits between green and black in the cup.

The county's mountainous terrain, misty climate, mineral-rich red soil, and significant day-to-night temperature variation all contribute to the depth and complexity of the leaf. This tea is crafted in the traditional Anxi style — a richer, slightly higher-fired approach than the lighter jade-style oolongs that have grown popular in recent years. Oxidised to around 30 percent and given a medium roast, it sits comfortably between the freshness of green tea and the fuller body of black, with a character all its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eProduction follows a careful sequence: the leaf is tumbled in a bamboo drum to bruise the edges, then left to wither and partially oxidise before being rolled into the tight little balls that are the hallmark of this style.

At its heart is a smooth, semi-oxidised oolong — sitting naturally between the freshness of green tea and the depth of black — with liquorice root, star anise, cinnamon, rosehip seeds, sweet blackberry leaves, Roman camomile, and sunflower petals woven through to create something genuinely distinctive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhat makes this blend particularly appealing is how well the botanicals complement the oolong rather than competing with it. Liquorice root provides a natural, gentle sweetness that deepens as the cup cools. Star anise brings a warming, familiar spice note — comforting without being sharp — while cinnamon adds a soft, honeyed warmth in the background. Rosehip seeds contribute a subtle fruitiness and a gentle tartness that lifts the blend, and sweet blackberry leaves add a smooth, mellow body that rounds out the oolong's natural character beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eRoman camomile introduces a quiet floral calm to the finish, and sunflower petals — as lovely to look at in the dry leaf as they are in the cup — add a delicate aromatic touch that completes the blend.

The blend responds well to a slightly longer steep if you prefer a fuller, more warming cup, as the liquorice and star anise continue to open with time.
