Wu Yi Wulong Oolong 1/2LB Tin Pack

$39.99
Oolong tea has several different names. It is often referred to as Wu Long or Wu Long tea in English, and, fairly recently as Wu Yi tea. However, even though they have different names, every one of these teas are harvested, prepared, and rolled using the Oolong method.
Originally, the different names were the result of differences in pronunciation and so there are several different methods of translating the different Chinese words into English. In local Fujian pronunciation the first character is Oo, but in standard Mandarin Chinese the first sound is Wu. Therefore the name of the tea is either Oolong or Wu Long depending on the translation of the pronunciation used.
Wu Yi tea is a variety of Oolong that is grown in the Wuyi Mountains in Fujian Province. Although these mountains are famous for the high quality of the tea grown there, Wu Yi tea is still just a variety of Oolong tea. Although Oolong tea (also referred to as Wu Yi tea or Wu Long tea) is widely consumed in the Far East, it still has a mysterious aura outside China.
