Ingredient Overview
Oolong sits between green and black tea in its degree of oxidation. Its processing gives a distinctive tea character that can be carried into instant powder ingredients.
Instant oolong tea powder is made from partially fermented Camellia sinensis tea leaves. The partial oxidation of oolong creates a tea category with a broad range of aromatic styles. An instant powder lets developers work with the selected tea profile in dry beverage blends. It can also be considered for tea-flavoured desserts where oolong is intended to be a recognisable feature.
