This oxidation gives oolong tea a distinguishable taste and color. However, like most teas, this color can range quite significantly depending on the oolong tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor those looking for \u003cstrong\u003eoolong tea in NZ\u003c\/strong\u003e that is both complex and full-flavored, loose \u003cstrong\u003eleaf organic oolong tea\u003c\/strong\u003e is an exceptional choice of drink suitable to be enjoyed at any time of the day. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBenefits of Oolong Tea NZ\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlthough oolong tea is not drunk nearly as much as green or black tea, it still has many of the same health benefits that these types of teas possess. Oolong tea contains antioxidants which are found to increase heart health when consumed on a regular basis. Regular tea drinkers may also see a reduction in their blood pressure and cholesterol levels as a result of drinking oolong tea in NZ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Some studies have also shown that drinking oolong tea may also be beneficial when attempting to lose weight. Polyphenol antioxidants are found in oolong tea, which can help activate enzymes that allow you to use stored fat for energy use when exercising. These polyphenols in combination with caffeine can help to increase the amount of fat you can burn in a day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOolong tea has also been connected with improved brain function when consumed regularly. The caffeine component of the tea can help to increase the release of norepinephrine and dopamine, which can be beneficial for your brain’s functionality as well as your overall mood. Furthermore, an amino acid found in tea known as theanine can also help to increase focus and alleviate the effects of anxiety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTi Ani - Oolong Tea Online New Zealand\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf you’re searching for \u003ca data-mce-fragment=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/tiani.co.nz\/\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/tiani.co.nz\/\"\u003etea online in NZ\u003c\/a\u003e, Ti Ani offers a delightful number of organic teas that provide a wide range of interesting flavors and medicinal benefits when brewed correctly.

Rolled by hand, this premium Oolong tea is one of the most popular Oolong across the globe. Also known as Tiegwuanuin, this tea originated in the 19th century in Anxi, Fujian (China). The processing of Tieguanyin tea is complex and requires expertise. Even if the tea leaf is of high raw quality and is plucked at the ideal time, if it is not processed correctly, its true character will not be shown.
Crafted in the traditional style, with medium oxidation and moderate roasting. This carefully managed process creates a smooth palate that exudes aromas of roasted buckwheat that transforms into a gardenia and honeysuckle like flavours ending with a subtle apricot aftertaste.
Brewing & Ingredients
1-2 teaspoons per cup
First Steep, use boiling water, rinse the leaves briefly and pour the water off. This will awaken the leaves.
Re-infuse and steep for 2 mins, taste and steep for longer if you prefer a stronger brew
