Pouchong, also known as Baozhong, is a very green oolong tea hailing from Taiwan. Pouchong is the most lightly oxidized of all oolongs - just 8-10%. This creates a beautiful balance of green tea freshness and heavenly floral notes found in darker oolongs. In Taiwan, Pouchong tea is all about the aroma. In the cup, you'll find a buttery sweet and uplifting floral aroma that lingers on the palate long after your last sip. Our fine quality Pouchong displays a soft, succulent texture and a clean, refreshing finish. Steep at 195°F for 2-3 minutes

What a delightful light green oolong, that is perfect anytime during the day. I used adagio honey to sweeten the special oolong cuppa tea.

Definitely a greener side of oolong due to the light oxidation. Makes a light, sweet, herbal cup of tea. A bit too light for me, but nice to blend with other teas.

This has a great light sweetness.
It makes me think of a light milky oolong. Very tasty. (195F for 2min)

I like how different this is from most oolongs, especially formosa. Very light and floral

Very light and lovely, but a bit too light for how I prefer my oolongs.
