Xuan’s ginseng oolong is a ginsing tea

that starts out as a high grade of Dong Ding Mountain Oolong, and is mixed with “xi yang shen,” which is a high grade of “ren shen,” or standard ginseng. The combination is the rich flavor of good Oolong tea coupled with the strong sweetness of ginseng that produces a ginseng oolong that is sure to tickle your tongue.

When processed, the ginsing tea is rolled and dried into deep green spheres. A sign of a good ginseng oolong is that when brewed, these spheres will open up to reveal tender oolong leaves, something lower qualities won’t do. Ginseng oolong is also very good for you. Aside from being refreshing and good for weight loss, another lofty benefit ascribed to the tea in Chinese medicine is the ability to prolong life and prevent coronary heart disease. The most interesting thing about ginseng oolong is that it was once the common drink of the imperial palace courtyard.
