Discover the world of semi-fermented tea, where tradition meets complexity. Semi-fermented teas, such as oolong and Raw Pu-erh (Sheng Pu-erh), have an oxidation or fermentation level that ranges from 10% to 70%, creating a balance between the lightness of green tea and the robustness of black tea. Oolong teas, with oxidation levels between 15% and 65%, are intentionally semi-oxidized to develop their unique flavors. Raw Pu-erh (Sheng Pu-erh), though processed differently, undergoes a natural fermentation process and continues to age and transform over time.
Our semi-fermented tea collection features a wide spectrum of flavors. Lightly oxidized oolong teas (15-30%) bring floral, fruity aromas, while heavily oxidized oolongs (30-65%) deliver rich, roasted, and earthy flavors. Raw Pu-erh (Sheng Pu-erh) offers a distinctive profile, starting with fresh, grassy notes and developing earthy, deep characteristics as it ages over months and years.
When you choose our Semi-fermented Tea collection, you’re not just choosing tea, you’re embracing quality and value.
