• Formosa Oolong (福爾摩沙烏龍) teas are known for their unique flavors, aromas, and complex profiles.
• Our Formosa Oolong includes floral notes, fruity undertones, a smooth and creamy texture, and a lingering sweetness. 

Features:

• Antioxidant Properties: Oolong tea contains antioxidants, such as catechins, theaflavins, and polyphenols, which may help combat oxidative stress in the body. Antioxidants play a role in neutralizing free radicals, which can contribute to aging and various diseases.
• Weight Management: Some studies suggest that the polyphenols in oolong tea may aid in weight management by increasing metabolism and promoting fat oxidation. However, the effects are generally modest, and a healthy diet and regular exercise remain crucial for weight control.
• Heart Health: Oolong tea may contribute to heart health by helping to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels. The antioxidants in tea may have a positive impact on cardiovascular function.
• Mental Alertness: The caffeine and L-theanine content in oolong tea may contribute to improved mental alertness and focus. L-theanine is an amino acid that can have calming effects, balancing the stimulating effects of caffeine.
• Dental Health: Oolong tea contains fluoride and tannins, which may help in maintaining oral health. Fluoride is known for its role in preventing tooth decay, while tannins may have antibacterial properties.
• Digestive Benefits: Some people find that oolong tea can aid in digestion and alleviate certain digestive issues. The polyphenols in tea may have a positive impact on gut health.
• Bone Health: Some studies suggest that regular tea consumption, including oolong tea, may contribute to improved bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. The exact mechanisms are not fully understood and may be influenced by various factors.
• Kosher and Non-GMO
