Oolong RP: /uːlɒŋ/, GA: /ulɑŋ/ (simplified Chinese: 乌龙; traditional Chinese: 烏龍;pinyin: wūlóng) is a traditional Chinese tea (Camellia sinensis) produced through a unique process including withering the plant under the strong sun and oxidation before curling and twisting. For this batch we used 10 1/2 cups of water, 21 grams of Oolong loose leaf tea, 1 cup of sugar and 1 1/4 cup of starter buch.
We harvested this on 8/13 and flavored it with 1/2 tbsp of sugar. It tasted a little sweet. I’m looking forward to increasing the amount of tea next time. Still experimenting with how much sugar to add for second fermentations.
