Oolong tea

Usually originating from China or Taiwan, oolong tea is somewhere between green and black tea. It’s made from the leaves, buds and stems of the Camellia sinensis plant (the same one used to make black and green tea) but its partial fermentation is what differentiates it from the other two. Oolong tea was originated in Fujian province. It stretches back to more than 1000 years which is called Beiyuan tea. It was called tribute tea which was created in Fujian that was produced during the period of Song Dynasty. There has been lots of scientific research made into oolong to examine its health benefits and the findings go some way towards explaining its popularity among tea drinkers.
