To make a the perfect oolong, the leaf is picked at peak times, withered in the sun, shaken and gently bruised, dried in the shade, and the process is repeated many times until the perfect oxidation level is reached.

Oolong tea can be infused many times, usually getting better after the first couple infusions, by releasing its floral and other natural undertones.
